Vonnie and I have been working hardcore on our budgeting and communication skills over the last month. We’ve been digging ourself out of a bit of a financial hole due to overspending the first half of July and I’ve really been leaning on my blogging friends for inspiration during this little rough spot.
Check out some of the posts that have really struck a chord with me this week and helped me keep rocking the budget and the lines of communication open.
“I Want To have fun” – One of the Worst Excuses for Not Saving from Financial Samurai
The Biggest Dilemmas to Overcome When Making a Budget from All Finance
Can I Really Stay Married AND Get Out Of Debt? from my friends at CareOne
Are You Keeping Each Other in Debt? from The Debt Myth
On a different note, you may be aware that I’m a huge exercise / fitness guy and training for my third marathon. I was thrilled to to see a post on the Financial Blogger Conference website urging attendees to get healthy. It’s some great motivation for all of us attending the conference to step up our fitness game one more notch.
Finally, I want to point you to a post that has nothing to do with personal finance, but you should read it anyway. Even personal finance bloggers have to think about something besides money some of the time. I love to laugh, this post definitely made me laugh, and I think it will make you laugh, too.
