Recently, a friend of mine started keeping a blog, and she has inspired me to renew my interest in my own blog. Hence, this post. (Don't know if she wants link love just yet, so I'll hold off linking to her blog until I have her express consent.) But what to write about? Well, I haven't said anythin ...

So yesterday I meant to go to the gym, I did, but we got caught up in the momentum of deep cleaning the jungles our children call bedrooms. And then it was late and I was tired. Today I continued a little in the cleaning vein, and then I went to the gym. I vowed to go, and I went. So yay me! When I ...

Well, only a year late on this post, but with the Seventh Annual Bar Games Olympiad approaching, I figured it was time. The Sixth Annual Bar Games Olympics was off to a poor start when day-of bailers once again reared their heads. However, we are professionals – and lucky. Jabe came through once aga ...

So as all both of you might recall, last time I went to the gym, and the time before that, it was somewhat less than a rousing s ...

The Lovely Rhonda received a credit card offer today. YOU’RE PRE-APPROVED! It said. And the interest rate? Well, the introductory rate was halfway reasonable. For a period of time.

So we paid off my two crappy high interest rate credit cards recently. It turns out that credit card companies really hate it when you want to pay them off, and they make it difficult to do so. You have to OVERPAY them and then they issue you a refund. I sat in the loan officer’s office and called A ...

So I had these two high-interest rate credit cards. They were leftover from a time when I was a) young, b) poor, and c) desperate. I had not used either of them in years and we’d been paying them down faithfully but they had swollen to the point that it was impossible to get ahead. And they charge s ...
