Happy Election Day! Or maybe judgment day. It's hard to be sure. Either way, I voted (if not just to make the text messages and incessant phone calls stop, ya know?) I don't have any snazzy transitions in mind, so let's just jump in. This year has been the most peculiar and disturbing I've ever… Continue reading It’s November 3rd!

Introducing Burgundy Betch: The Podcast
The passion project I've always wanted to start (a podcast) has come to fruition! It costs $1 to download but that's mainly to screen out the bots or whatever. If you listen and decide you'd like your dollar back, listen to it again! I'm v proud of this. If you still want your dollar back,… Continue reading Introducing Burgundy Betch: The Podcast
Bringing back the Music
Hello friends new and old, This year has been... well, y'all already know. I started out my year all ready to budget and vacation and love and live. And it all came to a screeching halt somewhere around March. I'm willing to bet you've had the same feelings and conversations I've had... wow, it's already… Continue reading Bringing back the Music
Year of Less: Week 6
I decided not to post last week since I had bronchitis and didn't do much of anything or spend any money. This week though, phew. I think I'm making up for a tame start to February! I think the -30 wind chills and midwinter SAD have put a spell on me. Ok, it's not actually… Continue reading Year of Less: Week 6
1 Month of Less
It's done! Month 1! Woot woot. Yesterday, I tallied up all of my expenses for the month and compared it to my budget, and definitely learned a few things... I spend a lot of money on food. Like, almost as much as I spend on all of my housing costs. In January, I spent $562… Continue reading 1 Month of Less
Week 3
It's week three of the year of less, and to be honest I slipped up this week. I bought the new Sims 4 expansion pack (Tiny Living, btw) AND ordered food twice! And one of the times it was Dominos! I spoke too soon last week, I s'pose. I talked myself into these things because… Continue reading Week 3
Year of Less: Week 2
I'm not gonna lie, this is way easier than I expected. While Rudy's surgery hurt my wallet, I was super proud of myself for having the funds on hand to be able to pay for it. In the week since, I think most of the money I've spent has gone to Lyft rides and groceries.… Continue reading Year of Less: Week 2
Year of Less: Week 1
Already a week into the new year, and my shopping ban is in full swing! I've set a budget and have tracked every expense, so I'd say things are off to a great start. Y'all, I have only purchased coffee once! I was thinking this would be the hardest habit to kick, but it's been… Continue reading Year of Less: Week 1
