As you may have noticed it’s been a bit quiet around these parts. I intentionally took time off near the holidays and over New Year’s, but fully intended on jumping back into Centsible Life with new ideas, new content, and lots of exciting developments in 2016. The break was wonderful, but when it came time […]
Learning To Ride
As parents we all work out butts off to provide for our kids with everything they need and more love than they could ever understand (at least until they have their own kids). Some days it’s really, really challenging. This summer I’ve had more than my fair share of those challenging days. It’s just a tough juggle […]
Weighty Matters
It’s been some time since I’ve shared a personal update, and I thought it was as good a time as any to share. While the website is mainly devoted to helping you live a more centsible life I know that sometimes readers want a peek behind the curtain to know more about me. I started […]
Summer “Vacation”
Summer vacation has begun! The kids are thrilled, of course. I’m thrilled that homework is over, end of school year parties and celebrations are done, and there’s no more long morning routine. WOOHOO! We have more time to be active, more time to do fun things, and more time to do things we don’t get […]
An Unfiltered Life
It’s lovely outside today. 70 something degrees. Spring. Cool breeze. Lovely flowers. The birds are chirping. Our dog is lazily plopped down in the backyard waiting for a rogue squirrel to try to make it past him. More importantly I’m safe. Well-loved. Cared for. We have enough. I have a career I love. A roof […]
Broken Toe Update: Getting Personal
As I’ve shared previously I broke my little toe on my left foot. I hit it on the molding between our kitchen and front hall while hopping over the baby gate we use to keep the puppy away from the front door. I don’t even know how I did it-just that it hurt like h-e-double […]
Turning Outward: Getting Personal
It’s been awhile since I shared a personal post, so I thought it was time. While I have been meaning to make this a more regular thing I don’t want them all to be so down, but that’s where I’ve been lately. Thankfully I’ve gained a bit of perspective after a rough week, and while I […]
Embracing the mess while I can
I know it’s slightly ironic to talking about embracing the mess after I just shared how I’m getting rid of clutter, but it’s a little of both. We need to learn to live with less AND embrace the messes our kids (and we) make. “GUYS! Come clean up the table!” “Honey, you need to clean […]
Pinky Toe Problems
I try to occasionally share personal updates on the blog, but I find more and more often those are going on Facebook, on Instagram, or even (shocking!) on Twitter. There are a few personal updates I want to share that are longer in nature, and even though promised in 2015 I’d be more personal on the […]
Monday Musings: On 2015
If you’ve been a reader for a while you know that I occasionally share more personal updates on the website in addition to my regular content. My aim for this year is to create a little more personal space on the blog since my content tends to be more informational and I know readers enjoy […]
