Friday’s Frugal Five (Russian Invasion Edition)

Well. Today is not going to be an "everything is normal" post in light of what has happened / is happening this week. Russia invaded, unprovoked, a sovereign nation. I do want to say, though, that while we like to throw around the word "unprecedented" a lot these days, there is a lot of precedented…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 97)

Do do do it’s 2022. Set to whatever music you like. Welcome to year three of the 2020s, folks! Three more weeks, and I’ve been tracking these Covid Fridays for 100 weeks. Hard to believe. Feels like forever and no time at all since our pre-covid days. Hope you are all staying safe and pandemic…

Friday’s Frugal Five (Oregon Coast Edition)

If you follow me on social media (or get our Women's Personal Finance newsletter), you'll already know, but we got to go visit Regina and her family down on the Oregon Coast! We've known each other for four years and have been close for the past three or so, but this was only our third…

Emergency Preparedness (Guest Post – Escaping Oregon Wildfires)

The Western United States has had unprecedented wildfires this September. More land burned in Oregon, Washington, and California in days than had been seen in entire fire seasons. The region was blanketed in smoke with hazardous air quality for weeks. And whole towns went up in flames. We were the lucky ones, “only” having to…

The Real Life Test of Emergency Preparedness (Guest Post from the Non Blogger Early Retired Lady)

If you remember reading a guest post last year about a woman who retired at 44, you might also remember that I promised to try and get her to write another post here on the blog since everyone loved hearing her story as a non-blogging early retiree. She and I have become better friends since…

My Coronavirus Victory Garden

As a history nerd (just shy of a history major in college), I love reading about the Victory Gardens regular families planted during World War II. I asked on Twitter a couple weeks ago if other people were also planting a COVID-19 Victory Garden, and the response was overwhelmingly yes. Apparently I'm not the only…

How We’ve Stocked Up for COVID-19 (Our Emergency Preparedness Supplies List)

A couple weeks ago, I began reaching out to friends to ask about the status of their food and supplies at home - if they had the minimum two weeks as recommended as a standard rule of thumb for emergency preparedness. For the most part, I got lightly brushed off and business continued as usual,…

PrepperFI in the Face of COVID-19

Ever since That Frugal Pharmacist wrote a guest post here on the blog about her family's experience with what we then coined as PrepperFI, I had meant to write my own. PrepperFI, as we've defined it, is the crossover of financial independence/retire early (FIRE) and emergency preparedness. With the current situation of COVID-19 here in…
