I'm moving over the weekend!
I know you just got here but Blogger has issues. And because I have issues myself, it's best to surround myself with things with less issues than me. Makes total sense right?
And since Blogger wouldn't let me comment on my own post (it told me I am not a recognized "friend" of the blog site) and we could spend hours trying to determine what THAT means, I've decided to part ways and head on over to WordPress. Giddy Goat was having trouble downloading pictures on Blogger and it brought back many frustrating reminders of that happening to me too - add the lack of spell check to the scenario (what am I a magician?! a girl could use a little spell check around here!) and you've got someone who is closing up shop and moving elsewhere. I'll post the forwarding link next Monday when I've got it all set up.
So while I'm off setting up WordPress, celebrating my anniversary with zombie movies, hosting fellow radical budgeters for dinner and moral support and clean house, I'll leave you with a question for our first official Feedback Friday:
Who wants to join me?
Just think about it. I'm not asking you to give up Starbucks, join a financial cult, eat Ramen noodles or give up wine. Heck, I might increase our wine consumption around here! But if you want to try to live on a cash budget, stop constantly spending money (go ahead and buy that cute scarf, I won't tell!) or just learn how to live more simply and healthier....I will welcome you into the group. Maybe you can even be a guest columnist on here. And it doesn't matter if you live far away or right here in town.
Because frankly, it is always nice to have people in the same dinky raft boat as you. Makes it more fun to throw things at the people cruising by on the yachts. (Except you April...I would like a ride on your yacht next year, please!) And it's not about penny-pinching either because if the budget allows for you to give yourself a full week trip to a spa in AZ, why we will be very happy for you! (just duck a lot when you announce it)
And if you just want to hang out here and read about my life so you can sigh with relief that your husband isn't trying to figure out ways to grow lettuce in your laundry room sink, that is fine too.
All are welcome.
I can't stop laughing about the Yacht comment- it's just a sailboat and kind of an old one too! Of course we'll take you out on it next year as long as you don't laugh at us too much when we dock the boat, we're still not very good at it. As far as joining in goes, I'd love to, but converting Jason is another thing! For me budgeting and being frugal is second nature having grown up on a farm with 6 siblings.
ReplyDeleteHave a great anniversary weekend!
Yeah, I don't expect anyone is going to - at least yet - but I thought I would throw it out there!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, we won't laugh at you for docking - I grew up with speedboats and remember having a hard time even with those :)
