Today I'm excited to share something I've been meaning to post for quite some time. It's a set of fun & colorful BLANK monthly calendars! Last year when I created my dated monthly calendar, I realized that I had a constant need for a blank calendar. I found myself printing out copies of my calendars for all kinds of reasons - for planning projects, keeping track of blogging deadlines, meal planning, writing out our monthly menu, tracking field trips and homework, etc. Instead of creating one set of calendar templates this year, I created something that could be Keep Reading

It's been a while since I originally posted my 26-week savings plan, so I figured it was time for an update!

When I set out to grow my blog to $7,500 per month (October 2015 earnings....income report to be posted soon!), I started with my end goal in mind. I looked at what my then-monthly income was and calculated how long it would take me to meet my goal if I simply duplicated my efforts up to that point. I visualized all of this on a whiteboard, then eventually moved it into an Excel spreadsheet Keep Reading

I know there are many benefits to meal planning but I've been late to the game and know I need to get better at it.
