A Great Week for Simple Living Family

Two really great things happened to Simple Living Family this week.

The first was being highlighted on The Simple Living Project. Thank you to Adam for such a great article. He said I had a “witty and concise way” of writing about living simply with kids. I’m still smiling from reading that line.

The second was my post, Spendster.org: Track Your Dumb Purchases, being featured on the homepage and the money tab of BlogHer. It has been up less than a day and it has already had almost 500 views.

Sometimes when I run into people they’ll ask me, “How is your blog?”. Then they’ll say something about not knowing how I have the time to do it. The truth is I don’t have the time. I have a husband, two kids and a dog. I also work full-time outside our home. The only chance I have to write is very early in the morning before the boys wake up and late at night after they’ve gone to bed. But I still do it, because I enjoy it that much. I am passionate about it. So when other sites feature something I’ve written, I’m not going to lie. It feels really, really good.

Thank you to The Simple Living Project and to BlogHer for making this such a great week!
