I had a post prepared for today, I was dotting my i’s and crossing my t’s (figuratively of course), but had to take a break to go pick up my daughter from school. Then I saw this tweet:
Immediately I went to Mooshinindy’s site, and read her post “of veterans and vomit.” (Don’t worry the vomiting turned out ok, her daughter is all better now)
I clicked on the link to Ancestry.com and first searched for my Dad’s father. Under the top result , which was record of his death and burial at Arlington, I saw this.
My great grandfather’s registration card for World War 1. Wow.
Excuse me while I go lose myself over at Ancestry.com.
Thank you veterans. Happy Veteran’s Day.

I was invited to be a part of a personal finance chat this evening, and because it is open to everyone, I wanted to share it with you.
The Lifetuner Personal Finance Chat takes place today, Wednesday, August 26th at 10pm ET/7pm PT.
Personal finance chats are always a fun thing for me to take part in, and it’s great to talk other people who are thinking about personal finance, saving money, and optimizing their spending. It keeps me on track, and reminds me why I’m working so hard to get debt-free.
A blurb from Lifetuner regarding the chat:
This Wednesday, August 26 at 10:00 PM Eastern/7:00 PM Pacific, we are inviting bloggers to come and talk about their stories, and to debate the methods we use to learn about personal finance, during our third live chat event on TalkShoe.com, which will be co-hosted by MLR from My Life ROI and Laura (who knows a thing or two about racquetball herself) from Green Panda Treehouse.
Lifetuner also hosted its’ very 1st Chat Carnival: Finance Lessons Learned the Hard Way.
I’m a little late to the party, but here is my entry: Personal Finance The Hard Way
Hope you join me for the chat tonight!
Kelly
