I am in the midst of stringing together 3-4 posts about our experience thus far here in Southern California/Los Angeles.
Everyone has told us “Give it a year, maybe a year and a half …” … well we’ve been here 18 months so it’s time to check in and see where we stand on things.
Give me [...]

The Amazing Race 15
Posted in Uncategorized on September 28, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Did you watch the season premier last night?
I love the fact they started the race at the super cool Los Angeles river, complete with graffiti and very little water. When I hear ‘river’ that’s not exactly what I think of but it’s so LA.
I don’t want to spoil any of the show but three things [...]

Fall used to be my favorite season. Why do I say it used to be?

Chicago and Canadian falls have the leaves turning color and [...]
Goodbye Credit Card Debt

… and with a few clicks of the mouse, *poof* it was gone.
At one point close to $10,000 – most of it accumulated just before and right after getting married. We have not added anything to the card in the last 2-3 years while we kept chipping away at it.
A large payment last year and [...]
