A blog at rest tends to stay at rest

One of these days I'll post something again.

(Blog posts about blog posts are the worst kind.)

Um, excuse me Emily, but you posted this on my birthday. I was expecting a long, adoring post all about that, and me.

(I'm officially offended.)

(And happy because I haven't posted in over a month, so now I feel better.)

(Since you are my blogging guru, even though you don't know it.)

Another taboo topic: money

I don't have a lot of real visible or artistic talents, but one talent that has served me well is an ability to manage and organize money well. A few of my sisters-in-law have asked me how I do the family budget, so this is a straight up accounting of how I do the accounting. When we get a paycheck: 10% tithing right off the top Then, with the remainder (net minus tithing), I divy it up into percentages and put money into different "funds" -- that I keep track of in the back of my paycheck because I'm old school like that.

Two things

First and foremost, happy birthday to my wonderful mom! I honestly don't know anyone more generous, giving or good with people.

She hates flying, but flies all over the place, because travel and culture and enriching experiences and seeing family trump her fears every time. She also hates bridges. And swimming. And confrontation. And cooking. And bad grammar. And dopey people. And a...
