The 76k Project posted her top twelve posts for 2018 just before Christmas, and I had such a fun time reading through them to see which were her most popular (and to go back and read the ones I hadn't yet) that I decided I wanted to do a similar post myself. Going back to…
Amazing that this is somehow the last of my Frugal Five posts of the year already. Even more incredible is that I've been writing them consistently since October 2017. Something that began initially as "filler" posts has turned into something I love to write. My Monday posts tend to be more broad and personal finance…
Welcome to another week of the Women’s Personal Finance Wednesdays roundup. I started this series after months of debate because I wasn’t certain I wanted to up the ante and commit to publishing three posts a week.

Merry Christmas to you and yours, and Happy Holidays to those of you who celebrate in a different way. I hope these days are as wonderful as they can be. With love and light,

Since this is the last week before Christmas and we're smack dab in the middle of the holiday season, and thus holiday blog posts, I decided to have my first "themed" roundup week with all three posts shared focused on the holidays. I'll likely not do too many themed weeks in the future, but it…
When I got the opportunity to write a guest post for JD Roth over at Get Rich Slowly, I knew it was time to finally put to paper the idea for a post that had been marinating in my head for quite some time. So often we hear people talking about what they consider to…
Apparently Tuesday was the darkest day in the last two years with almost no sun output (0.55 mJ/m^2, if you're counting). The good news is, we aren't even to the shortest day of the year yet. Oh wait. Perhaps that isn't good news. I do love the Pacific Northwest, and I do love the holiday…
