what really matters.

In this world of darkness we can feel helpless. Here's is one way to help one family who has to have inspired millions by now, including Rainn Wilson  (that's Dwight Schrute for fans of The Office...)

If you do anything today watch this video. Then go and share it.

HERE is another fundraising site for Ryan and family.

lately.

So Spencer and I are going into week 4 of FPU. I know budgeting can be tough, but when you are in the red every month it's nearly impossible to make a zero budget. Alas, somehow it's at zero. (Actually, it's because all our debt is on Irregular Income Planning form).

I really like that Dave says nothing is going to happen without hard work. It's not a pray you are blessed with riches mumbo jumbo. It's pretty legit. And Spencer doesn't seem to mind it, so that's a major plus. Since we are starting this now I have high hopes for us.

On a brighter note I have two job interviews this week. One of them (the full-time, higher paying one) comes with at least two recommendations for me...so I'm quite hopeful. But it all comes down to me. Ugh. I really hate interviews. Even a crappy job would at least put us in the green.

Also, if you have student loans... do this.

Too much money talk.

Christmas list begins HERE!


I really like this picture of Husby. Das a nice bowtie. These are a few from his sister Amy's wedding : )
