Happy 2015!

Hello everyone!  Happy 2015!  Can you believe that Christmas and the holidays are over and that another year is upon us? I am amazed daily at just how fast time flies these days. 2015 has me making a lot of changes in my life. I am down to the wire at college with only 3 semesters left (including the one I'm starting next week)! I have been more focused on budgeting and meal planning for this year, in hopes that it will save our family both time and money in the long run. We are also participating in the loose change challenge that many of you have probably seen all over social media. If not, it's a challenge to put all of your loose change into a jar, container, whatever you may have, from January 1st through November 1st. Then, you can use that money for Christmas, to pay a bill, whatever you want to use it for. We haven't decided what ours will be used for yet, but we started the challenge a little earlier, about mid-December.

There will also be a lot of new changes coming toward the blog. In mid February, I will be using WordPress as my host and will have my own "official" blog. I guess that's what you would call it. The name will be changing, the layout will be different, and there will also be a YouTube channel to go along with the new blog. I have been extremely inspired by Mrs. Kisha over at KJaggers to become a blogger and YouTuber. I know that it will take a lot of work on my part, but another goal this year is better time management. Hopefully, this can help with that aspect as well.

I hope that all of you are having an amazing year so far! I am currently working on a meal plan and will try to have it posted by the end of the week for those who may need some ideas to get them started menu planning. Our youngest godson is turning 8 this week (time flies!) so we are celebrating this weekend.

Talk soon!
Blessings.
