It’s been an amazing year for us, and I’m so glad I’ve been able to document it all here in this blog.
I’ve picked up quite a few new readers in the past 12 months, so I thought it would be fun to recap the year with my favorite post from each month (an idea I picked up from Being Frugal). These weren’t necessarily your favorite posts, but they’re the ones that have been particularly meaningful to me.
January: Frugal European vacation — first we need a budget
February: Personal finance is romantic
March: I’ve got a new attitude
April: Comfort & complacency — frugality’s worst enemies
May: Frugality is about quality of life, not money
June: Unexpected benefits of a cash only budget
July: Stop making excuses and start making progress
August: Searching for a place called home
September: Lessons learned from our no spend summer
October: Unexpected benefits of life without cable
November: It’s not failure; it’s an opportunity to learn
December: If at first you don’t succeed, try a new approach
I hope you’re spending today focusing on your accomplishments from this year instead of your setbacks. I hope all of you have a safe and happy new year celebration.
