Weekend Warrior

Tax season is here, eesh. Let’s get down to it!

This weekend:

1. Get a new folder/envelope to hold 2012′s receipts

2. Figure out what the one bill is that is the least amount of debt.

(By making a list and doing the “snowball method” you’re able to knock out debt more quickly)

3. Set a budget for next month

I do this on my sticky notes program on my computer. Just list out all of the things I need to pay for in the upcoming month so that I can budget and know what money needs to go where

Yes. this is the week.

Yes, this is the week that I begin loading in for the New York International Gift Fair. This is it, kids. Months of planning, making lists, spending exorbitant amounts of money, have all come down to this.

I am terrified

I am excited.

I am not ready.

I AM READY.

There are still little tedious things to do, like fold brochures and pack products, and update my Ikea shopping list for the 32nd time. But all of the major things are done, all of the plans are finalized, and the culmination is here.

I have no expectations, honestly if I make my costs back (~$5k) then I would be the happiest person in the world. I could coast for a few months on that and hopefully not have to go back on the job hunt.

Stay tuned.

Weekend Warrior

How did you do on the first Weekend Warrior? It was little things, but still tough to do (that 5 minutes extra for me…ugh, killer!)

This week:

1. Find a new recipe blog

2. Clean out (or organize) the first 2 pages of your inbox

3. Take a picture of something or someone you love. (Share it here!)
