Weekend Links – “Sell in May and GO AWAY!”

It is a common idea among the investing world where people will dump their stocks in May and then go away, resulting in prices in the stock market lowering in May. It’s almost the middle of the month and the market is still chugging along pretty nicely. Unfortunately. I am finally caught up and organized [...]

April Spending Plan Results

April ended up being a decent month for us, although boy’s favourite thing to say these days is “we can afford it now.” For some reason, he seems to think that because I am back at a full-time job, my spending habits would automatically change overnight. Silly boy. AND there are some exterior influences that [...]

Weekend Links – It’s May Already??

Our first ultimate game was interesting; nothing like running in blowing snow to get your lungs pumping. Even with the weather, it was nice to get back into it. It’s been 3 weeks at the job and so far so good! I’m excited to go to work, they got me my own calculator so I [...]

Weekend Links – April 20th Edition

I survived the first week! Albeit, it was a short week, so I spent yesterday at the dentist and doing taxes for the family. Thank goodness for designated days off!

Weekend Links – Boy Edition Part Deux!

Week #2 from the Boy! Vix is still enjoying her trip, but I think she’s getting a little tired of the crazy hot weather she is being exposed to… I’m not sure if I would survive where she is!! I like nice, temperate climates – not too hot, not too cold – one reason why [...]

Weekend Links – Boy Edition Part 1

Well with Vix away for quite some time I am suffering some serious separation anxiety! I can confirm that she is enjoying her trip and so far all travel has been safe and relatively on time. Good news is she missed out on the excitement of how stupid the Flames were with their misguided offer sheet to [...]
