Is it Friday already? ?My wife?s family is in town today, so I took the day off from work and are just relaxing. ?They are all excited to see our son, so I will get some time to nap and catch up on some things that have sorely needed my attention. ?Have I mentioned that having a baby is hard work? ?I know I don?t have to say that to current parents, but dang, I never even imagined. ?Oh well, I have to keep going, so I will!
This week has been pretty good here at Debt Roundup. ?My readership is increasing ever so slightly each and every week. ?I like progress, so I am not complaining. ?I am close to hitting my 4th month of blogging here and I can say that I have enjoyed every moment of it, so thank you everyone that has stopped by and those that have shared my posts. ?Not only am I blogging here, but I finally got my first blog post published this week. ?If you haven?t done so already check out my post on Modest Money called ?Treating Your Savings Like A Monthly Bill?. ?A lot of people enjoyed the post, so I am happy about that. ?There will be more guest posts to come as long as I can find the time.
Well, enough of my rambling, let?s get on to the roundup. ?I hope you enjoy and have a great weekend everyone!
