While I started working at home a few weeks ago, it’s still feels much more like a vacation when Emma stays at home for a few days as well. I’ve been working on my blogs these few days but I’m quite relaxed and energized! I planned a little 2 day getaway with Emma in Palm [...]

Good luck happens at least once in a while!
From Me:
For a long time now, I wanted a 3-wood (golf club) but never could justify the purchase. Yesterday, my wife hinted that she will get me one for the holiday season (Thanksgiving, Christmas). The retail stores must have heard the conversation because this morning [...]

I was in the shower when I was thinking about The Simple Dollar’s 5 simple water conservation methods and whether they save us money or not. I was contemplating whether or not I could compromise and implement his suggestion of using a low-flow shower head. The savings was obvious – Less water equals [...]
