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.

Let the sun shine in!

The age of aquarius
Mom having fun in the sun!

It's February and we are in the age of Aquarius! (Like what I did there?!)


This past week, we had a reprieve from the frigid weather in Pittsburgh. However, rumor has it that the frigid weather is returning. So, here's a photo of me having fun in the sunshine. Know, I am here in the tundra, longing for it to return (and shopping for sundresses and hats! Check out Bluefly for great options!)

You can thank me later!!!
