Thanks for this. It’s exactly what I needed to hear. You have no idea what a big favor you just did a whole lot of us overworked go-getters!

Time off? Huh? What’s that?

@No More Spending. That’s ok! I gave myself more time off leading up to Labor Day. Besides, it was fun.

Micah’s comment on “way to turn a vacation into boot camp” reminds me of Calvin and Hobbes and Calvin’s father sometimes.

Hi Mrs. Micah,

I’ve got a suggestion for a post – we’ve recently decided we need to cut down our grocery bill each month (this month was over $400 – yikes!- although that includes all kinds of non-grocery items like a new coffee thermos and cooler). I wonder if others might be interested in the same thing or have advice on how to spend less on groceries without making major sacrifices in quality of life. I’ll let you know if we succeed and how we did it.

Happy labor day!
