A Walk Around the Blogs: Jogging By

Today’s walk is more like a jog. I’ll be honest, I am barely reading any other blogs, and not commenting at all. However, it does feel like we’re starting to get our routine together, and in a week, when school is out, I’ll get back about 2.5 hours/day, so hopefully soon I’ll be more of a presence.

Today we have a ton of stuff to do- shopping (including the farmers’ market), a dog park, making jambalaya base, house cleaning, and roller derby to end the night. So not much time for a leisurely stroll. So here we go.

Money Beagle – 6 Terrible Reasons Your Boss Might Love You (hint: you earned your vacation time, take it)

Financial Samurai – Should I Get an MBA to Find a Wealthy Husband or Wife? (note: the really successful people can often only do what they do because they have a strong support network at home – ie a stay at home significant other. But if that SO can’t understand what you’re talking about at the end of the day, how likely is the marriage to last?)

Hands On Home Buyer – Are You Ready to Buy a Home? (It’s a quiz. We love quizzes.)

Daily Money Shot – Birthday Thoughts: Making Good Financial Choices (Happy Birthday, once again, to my best blogging friend, Jana. You continue to amaze me.)

Something Wagging This Way Comes – Why Do We Expect So Much From Dogs? (Thank you for the reminder that Larry really is a good dog.)

Cascadian Nomads – Seattle to Buffalo with 3 Dogs Day 2: Across Montana (The whole series is great. I chose this one, because I grew up in eastern Montana and LOVE the pictures they shared.)

No Dog About It Blog – Nick: Daisy’s Nemesis, A Look Back (It’s always nice to take a look back and see how far our pets have come.)

New to Me Blog – My Cat Diaries – To Rescue or Not to Rescue (I have dogs because C is allergic to cats. I still love cats, though, and feel like I need to share them.)
