Priorities!

Sorry for the posting break, but I had a much needed break from reality with faraway family coming to stay for a bit!  The budget stayed close to intact too, thanks to eating at home (mostly) and picnicking (no idea if I spelled that right!) for food...visiting the beach, national parks, and playgrounds for entertainment...but truly, if I had maxed out the credit cards this week, it would have been worth it because time with family is my absolute priority one (but what a great bonus I didn't swipe the card once!!!)  But get ready for a posting frenzy....there is LOTS of financial activity going on here....stay tuned!
