NaBloWriMo Day 9: On the Move and Making it Happen
I haven’t been extremely successful in posting regularly for NaBloWriMo. I am up against deadlines at work (way past the deadline actually), and writing anything is the last thing on my mind by the time I settle in for the night.

NaBloWriMo Day 2: And the Journey Begins…
Here goes trying to eat healthy on a synced budget! I went shopping on Sunday and spent $32.01, therefore I have $7.99 left to spend this week on food.
