We became very burnt out. I am hopeful that by the end of February we will find some balance again in our lives. OurContinue reading “January 2024 Financial Update:”

Working Mom Capsule Wardrobe:
I love capsule wardrobe YouTube videos and Pinterest posts, but I always run into the same problem, they’re not realistic for my lifestyle. They’re often made by someone who doesn’t have any kids OR they are a stay at home parent and do not have a full time office job in addition to being aContinue reading “Working Mom Capsule Wardrobe:”

I thought of a new method on how to become a minimalist… Act as though you need to move across the ocean and fit all of your belongings in a carry-on suitcase, back pack, and large checked bag.

Things We Still Buy as Minimalists:
A lot of people think minimalists don’t buy anything except needs like food & shampoo, but that is not true. We have hobbies and unnecessary things we like to buy too.

The Dumbest Purchases We Have Made:
I always preach that to achieve FIRE you need to stop all unnecessary spending, but to be honest, over the years, we’ve (particularly me) been terrible with this.. I would say only in the last two years, we’ve greatly improved. So if we can be on track for FIRE after making all of these dumbContinue reading “The Dumbest Purchases We Have Made:”
The 4 Principles I Base All of My Life Choices On:
I read the book 7 Habits of Highly Effective People a while back and have since focused even harder to center my life around a few core principles, rather than things like: what would benefit me the most, what would make my spouse happy, what would make us the most money, etc. The book explainsContinue reading “The 4 Principles I Base All of My Life Choices On:”
