I had some fun this weekend. I went up to Virginia to enjoy Lake Fest in Clarksville. It was a bit of fun. As for my job hunt, I’m being careful this time around and I updated and tweaked my resume. I sent my resume o 1 job that caught my eye. I don’t want to just send my resume everywhere, I’m being a  a bit pickier. I’m grateful for having some money saved and a husband who is smart with his money.

Here are some great posts I saw this week. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
