I’ve Paid For This Twice Already…

Sunday Morning Link Love - The Colonoscopy Edition

My colonoscopy is tomorrow, so I’m on the liquid diet right now and in a few hours I start the preparation part.  So not looking forward to that.  I’ll be away from the computer for the next day or so while I have the procedure and then recover from it, so I’ll leave you with some articles I read this past week that I really enjoyed, in hopes that you do too!  See you on the other side, with a very clean colon. 

Cash Money Life:  Declare Financial Freedom on Financial Independence Day.  What’s your financial freedom plan?  Work it out and enter the Carnival of Financial Goals with your story.

Gather Little By Little: Gas Prices -  Do People Really Care?  I would have to say that the vast majority - probably not enough to change their driving style.  Yet.

My Two Dollars:  Dumbest Product Yet.  Click through to see what it is - as a parent I’m pretty disgusted.  We won’t be buying those.

Blueprint For Financial Prosperity:  Leftover Food Calendar - Reduce Food Spoilage.  This is a great idea.  We don’t often have spoiled leftovers but I have a problem with certain produce - like green onions.  I don’t use them fast enough.  I could use some reminders.

Frugal Babe:  A Great Free Gift For Your Child.  I really like this idea.  I shall have to do it for my two kids too.

Fiveberries in Texas:  Tax Time.  I found this entire story both innovative and hilarious!I may use it on my kids.

Are You Going To Be This Way… :  My Personal Finance Confession Project - Credit Card Rates.   Look for my financial confession soon!  Hopefully tomorrow if I get it done before I start the colon prep. 

Simple Mom:  Zero Based Budgets For The Home - A Primer.  I so agree with and love this post.  Excellent.

Frugal in the Fruitlands:  Four Strategies That Are Frugal Only if Your Time is Worth Nothing.   Sometimes I think my time is worth nothing though, so I struggle with finding that balance between valuing my time with using time I would waste anyway.

No Debt Plan:  Spare Change and Snowflaking - A Way To Boost Your Emergency Fund.    This is a cute story, and we have a little change hanging around too that I should gather up and put to use.

No Credit Needed:  A Fully Funded Roth IRA at Age 18 Could Net You $3.5 Million.  Just at 18.  Eeek.  Compounding rules. 

Uncommon Cents:  The Opposite of Snowflaking.  Ever wonder where your money goes?  I used to, until I realized I did this - all the time.  Just keeping track is such a powerful tool.
