Weekly Round Up: Carnival Preparation

in Blog Round Ups

It’s been a busy week for me and I’m sure some of you noticed a few changes. First off, I’m working on a new design for  the site. I want to keep the site from being too cluttered while having useful information around. I liked the last general layout, but there were too many bugs and I’m not technically saavy enough to fix them. This design will hopefuly free up more time for writing posts. Please leave your feedback in the comments. This site is (always) a work in progress and I’m working on it step by step. 

I also have it set up where you can download for free the posts as an mp3. Since quite a few of my readers are busy college students, you may not have time to read my posts every day. Now you can take them with you. Apple has also approved the podcasts for the Itunes store ,which is great since I have my podcasts up for free. 

As always, subscribing to the site is the easiest way to be updated. I’m just trying to make it easier for everyone to follow the site. 

Tomorrow I’ll have the Carnival of Debt Reduction up. It seems that the Blog Carnival submission site is down, which will make for an unusally short Carnival of Debt Reduction. If you can submit by 9pm EST tonight, I’ll review it for the Carnival tomorrow.

We had a great time at the state fair this weekend and we’re spending our Sunday night relaxing a bit. I love thefood, but this year I noticed a lot more deep fried things. Candy bars, mac and cheese, twinkies, cheesecake, and some others I can’t remember. 
I got a kabob, pizza, funnel cake, and some lemonade. Delicious and totally fine with me since we must’ve done a couple of miles walking around the place. 
The economy was a theme this week with personal posts, so I’m sharing the ones that will help you be more informed and proactive on handling your money.
