Podcast Fav 2: My Favorite Murder
To say I am addicted to this podcast might be an understatement. I love ❤️ this podcast so much. I cannot recall how I heard about it but most likely this was another Paleomg recommendation from her lists. When I heard the very first episode I was not sure about it as it was extremely…

Last Week Update
Well, after a focused week of posting last week on goals for the year based on my NYRs, I suppose I should update on a few discussions we had last week. *It is looking more and more as if we will be leaving sooner than later from the desert. Our destination is still in negotiations depending…

New Year’s Resolutions: 6. Personal

New Year’s Resolutions: 3. Finances

New Year’s Resolutions: 2. Work
My next focus for my NYRs is Work. Work is something that the majority of people do for most of their lives and sadly for a lot of people is also an activity that most do not like – yet they continue out of necessity or lack of options (known or unknown). Luckily for me,…

New Year’s Resolutions: 1. Health
As promised, here I am with my NYRs for 2017. I am starting with Health because it tends to be the easiest resolution for us to make, break and focus upon. In general, we are fairly healthy. I keep active, exercise pretty regularly and we eat a decent Paleo-ish diet. Still, it is easy to…
