I can remember at least a year ago when I was blogging but not that much. For some reason the last few months I have been becoming more and more addicted to blogging. And it is not just the writing of my own blog, I am obsessed with other people’s blog as well. I just love the fact that I can find moms who are like me. And I really love it when I discover a new blog. And today was a good day because I found a really good one. The blog is Blog That Mommy! She is so funny. I remember coming across her blog a while ago and then I lost it. I am super happy that I found it again. Not only is her blog cute but she is truly a “real” mom. She doesn’t try to pretend she is the perfect mom and she says the things that I am thinking. She has definitely got a new fan and I will be stopping by to visit everyday.
I found this pretty nice meal planner at Arcamax . This seems like a really good idea especially for those of us who need just a little help with planning what to cook. It has day by day suggestions. This could be really useful for finding meals that are different and can add a little variety to meal time.
One of my new debt blog finds is debtconsolidationcare.com . This site is definitely interesting. It is a getting out of debt community. There a lot of useful tools at this site. There are some finance calculators including a debt to credit ratio one. (don’t ask about my obsession with calculators, i am a little quirky). Debtconsolidationcare.com even has a nice chat room. I think that could be handy if you have a quick question or thought and need some immediate feedback. I like the way it is set up because even if no one else is on, you can run it in the background and get a nice little ding when someone enters the room. You can even do a little private chat. I am glad I came across it. There are some really good tips on there.
I am a big procrastinator so of course my answer is no. But it is on my list so does that count? I think sometimes it is just hard to decide what should I have in our emergency kit. I do not want to pack too much or too little. But something is better than nothing. Luckily when I was at Lazymanandmoney, he had some great suggestions. My favorite tip is the one about uploading important documents to the internet or portable hard drive. I do that with pictures but I never thought about back ups of birth certificates, social security cards, I.D. Another tip that caught my eye is the one about having emergency money. Having cash because atm machines and credit cards is a great idea. I am going to get my emergency kit together this week. To make sure I do it, I will post a picture when I have it done. Here is a list of things I am going to pack:
