It’s Friday baby, rejoice!!! What a crazy week up in hurrr. Lots of losses, lots of love, and lots of LIVING. It really is amazing how different these weeks can be from each other. But it’s also awesome :) And I hope you all are having more love and drama too!

Budgets Are Sexy always teaches us that it is better to give than to receive. Thanks for the love, glad you like the piece, and let’s get Lauren going!
Thanks for the backlink!
I’ve been thinking of starting up my own blog for a while now (fixing that dual income problem) and that is a great article on how to start one.
Now all I need is the right topic.
@Doctor S – It does feel GOOD, I’ll give it that! Trying to give back in some fashion once a day and when it works out I sleep much better :)
@Roshawn @ Watson Inc – Thx for hosting the festival!
@Bobby – I think you would really enjoy it :) But just keep in mind it takes a looooooot of work to make any money, so be sure you’re blogging about something you’re passionate about and enjoy. 99.99% of blogs don’t make a dime, so blogging for the love of the game has to come first ;)
