One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Minimize Expenses

Following Instagram posts can make you feel like other moms are either made of money or have sugar daddies funding their lifestyles. I can assure you. I have neither. There is nobody funneling money into my household except for me. And because I was an economics major and my dad was a banker, I am keenly aware of cash flow, assets and liabilities, and expenditures. Still, sometimes, I forget how expensive life can be. It's not because I lied about having a sugar daddy or have a trust fund.  It is because I am frugal. Indeed, being conscious of expenditures is integrated into my lifestyle.  I know that it is gauche to discuss money and yet, I feel compelled to share some thoughts.

More Memories from Mexico!



OK, there are a couple of things that I must say about the trip of all trips to Mexico. First, I went to Los Cabos, which is fighting with San Diego California to be the most beautiful place on earth. Second, I met my new friends Hunter and Amy from Texas at my resort (the Hilton Golf Resort--FABULOUS!). Hunter and Amy were incredible and gave this solo traveler true Southern hospitality. They were gracious without being pushy, inquisitive without being nosey, and protective without being overbearing. They were fantastic and helped make my trip.

This photo will show all of the naysayers how much fun we had. It will also show that if you're open to it, you can find friends anywhere.
