Welcome to Familinomics - where we tackle the chaos of knitting together generations while juggling budgets, planning for the future, and figuring out how to make Tuesday's leftovers stretch to Friday.  If you've ever felt like you're navigating the world of family finances and logistics with duct tape and hope, you're not alone.  As a fellow parent (and now a grandparent) who's been knee-deep in spreadsheets, late-night Googling of "how much do kids actually cost," and determining what really matters, Familinomics is here to help.  Together, we'll dive into practical tips, real-talk advice, and the occasional laugh to make future-proofing your family less overwhelming - and maybe a little more fun.
