Category Archives: Personal StoriesIf you think job hunting is a big pain, you’re right. How many times have you heard people say they were job hunting, only to find out they might have sent out 5 resumes that week. In my opinion, that’s not really job hunting.

Logged in to my checking account today and found my stimulus rebate check had been deposited! Straight to the savings account with that bad boy.
It’s not that I don’t want to spend it, because I do. But I think that rather than blow it on a whole lot of nothing I will just sit back […]
My sisters and I bought my Mom a Pajamagram to celebrate Mother’s Day. My Mom is a little hard to shop for - not because she is picky - but because she is frugal and not high-maintenance. I think we can always do good getting her things like PJs, movie tickets, gift certificates for dinner. […]
