Greetings friend!

I have learned to take the rest when my body needs it, and when I'm able. Example? Today! I came home from work extremely tired; my husband was home, my kids were playing, and I rested on the couch. Three hours later I woke up! (which is why I'm sending this late!) This was not how I anticipated my afternoon and early evening going, but it is what I needed, and if I would have ignored my body, it would not have gone well!

I talk about money A LOT. I am the person who moves the money around the most in our family, into and out of investments. My husband and I sit down every week to go over our spending, our goals, and how the two are aligned. I journal every day about my spending, which has helped curb my impulse spending. I talk quite a bit about money with people outside of my immediate family, and I want to do even more of that.

I'm reading a graphic novel that I read a while ago, and it's fun to revisit it! It's about middle school, making friends (literally and figuratively) and how what we want most in the world may actually backfire on us when it becomes clear we want it for the wrong reason. I'm sure I'll share about it in a future newsletter!
