Thrift Shopping Finds

Awesome thrift shopping finds are one of my all-time favorite things! So it’s hardly a shocker that I’m back to buying secondhand things now that I’m on my own again. I gave up far too much of myself in order to suit him. I did it willingly, but it’s relief to be able to live… Continue Reading

Financial Priorities: Glamour on a Budget

January 14, 2015 By Sage 15 Comments

Glamour on a Budget

This is something I almost never write about, but financial priorities are something I think about a lot. I grew up poor and knew I didn’t want to be poor for the rest of my life.
