My wife and I both have graduate degrees but that doesn’t mean that we are debt free as we took a few detours to the path of debt freedom ie. 2 lil girls. I have been blogging since February and I have made a lot of great friends through this from...
It has been a busy week here at This That and The MBA. Things are very busy on the work front as we move to completing our cost reports. This is the bread and butter in how the hospital gets paid.

Here are the articles that caught my attention this week: Daisy at Add Vodka with How running a blog is like running a business Michelle at Making Sense of Cents with Lifes Little Splurges...
This has been a long week at work. I had a virus on my computer that I am still trying to rectify and I am posting this from my cell phone. So if there are any errors please email me.

I think in the subsequent weeks I am going to expand the Five For Friday. If you have any clever naming methodologies please shoot me...
It has been a long week. I went out of town on Wednesday night and made a rookie mistake in forgetting to set up a post for Thursday. Then thinking I could access it from my phone, I tried and remembered that my WordPress hardening tactics worked well as I was not able to access behind the scenes here! So as frustrating as that was I had a good night golfing afterward. I was not able to read too many sites this week as I was working hard to complete an audit before I went out of town. But the...

Wow a whole 2 weeks into personal finance blogging and I have to say I love doing it. It has been a great journey thus far. I am building some great friendships with the personal finance blogging community. I have found the Yakezie Network great and everyone is very willing to help out.
