“I thought 2020 would be the year I got everything I wanted. Now I know 2020 is the year I appreciate everything I have.” – Unknown As I sat down to write this post, I thought to myself – “What the heck am I going to write about today?”. I’m so ready for the holidays
Oh boy, I guess I didn’t think about the timing on when I was going to write this series. With Thanksgiving festivities now behind us, hopefully we didn’t spend too much on food.

Since we’re just returning from Thanksgiving Festivities, I’ll continue my series on how I reduced spending on food in the next couple weeks. For now, here’s the first interview I’ve conducted with Nick from Illness to Ultra. I was kind of inspired by Mr. 1500’s 10 questions. I met Nick (virtually) at FinconX this year.

Since we’re nearing towards the end of 2019. It’s time for some reflection and planning. What I usually use to help remember is my planner. I’ve personally used the passion planner for the last 3 or 4 years. I even tried the full size one once, but shortly switched back to the small typical planner
I know I was M.I.A but hey I’ve been busy living outside the spreadsheet and it gets busy. Heck, I even wrote this blog post last week but have been traveling both for work and for pleasure. I completely forgot to post it. Anyway, busy, outside the spreadsheet and maybe even a little of the
