Me & My Litter

Welcome to my blog!  The one I have been talking about starting for weeks, months, probably a few years by now... but time just keeps slipping away, far too quickly.  Today I decided that it is finally time for me to sit down and write, instead of turning on old re-runs and taking a nap on the couch, like I find myself far to often.

Here is a little about me, and my "litter"...
I am 26 years old, working at a job I love, married to my best friend, and living only a few short blocks from my parents in the city that I grew up in.  My husband and I recently celebrated 8 years of sharing our lives with one another and creating the good, the bad & the priceless memories.  We have a small litter of cats that have come into our lives, one by one, over the last 5 years, and they bring us so much love and laughter that we don't know where we would be without them.  We always thought we were going to be a pet-free home, until each of them came to us with no place else to turn, and taking them in has been the best thing we ever did, for them and for us!

We live an "average" life, with an "average" house, "average" jobs, and "average" income, but one thing has changed us... the desire to be debt free! 
I know that there are a lot of people out there that feel the same way, and I would love to hear stories, learn how you became motivated, what keeps you motivated, and what was the hardest thing was to change about your habits.

This blog is meant to share about my life, my celebrations, my struggles, and how my "litter" keeps me going!  I hope that you join me for my journey, and that we can learn from each other as we find our destination!

YouData.com

Looking for a quick, easy way to make some extra money?  Check out YouData. It is not a huge money maker, but the pennies add up with time, and it is always nice to see a few extra cents get added into the budget, for something that you normally do on a daily basis...look at ads and watch commercials! Here is a copy of my referral email if you would like to join under my account (which I would be grateful for), or you can always visit the site on your own to sign up! I found something that I think you will like. The company's name is YouData ( youdata.com ). They are trying to convince consumers like us that we should be the ones controlling our own data and selling our own attention, not third parties like broadcasters, newspapers, and spammers. By creating a MeFile at YouData.com, I now control what ads I see and when I see them. Best part - I am selling my attention directly to interested advertisers, for real money. That's right, I get paid fo...

A Week of Golf

In 2017 my team was tasked with exciting job of catering to the LPGA Marathon Classic for their week long golf tournament here in town.  We had less then 4 months to prepare, and we had never done anything on such a large scale before.  It was both exhilarating and terrifying, especially for an Enneagram 6 like me.  We are loyal and committed, but our biggest needs are security, and we fear not having the support and guidance needed.  What a way to walk into a task like this.   I was suddenly tasked with finding organizations to fill close to 200 shifts for concession stands, as well as around 75 employees to help me make this event a reality.  It took a lot of time, planning, questions, stress, and a roller coaster of emotions, but we did it!  It was amazing the feeling that you have after you accomplish something like that. Since then we have continued to receive this job each July, and each year has gotten a little easier.  We have ha...

Ready for Autumn?!

When school starts, that means it's time for the routines to set in, new schedules and activities to begin, and best of all....the weather to cool off and Fall Fun can Begin! I love jeans, sweatshirts, boots, bonfires, apple cider, pumpkin patches, even football.  Give me anything and everything fall!  However, this heat wave does not pair well with warm doughnuts and apple cider - it just makes for bees and overheating.  The pumpkin patches aren't as fun because you don't have on jeans and boots and crisp weather to make it more fun.  The barns stink from the heat when you are trying to feed the cows and enjoy the animals around the farm. This weekend we are going to make our Fall Bucket List and wish for a little chill in a the air so we can enjoy this beautiful season of life we are given.   We will continue to make new goals, improve on our good habits, and find new ways to love each other to the fullest.
