I was inspired by a great podcast I listened to last week about “Top 10 Money Saving Tips” to create my own article about tips and tricks to help you out! There are so many seemingly insignificant purchases we make that can add up quickly. For example a $5 /month subscription to ANYTHING can add up to $60 at the end of one year. That could instead be used towards a fuel purchase, a small grocery store trip, a personal service to pamper yourself, or even invested to possibly earn you more money rather than just losing it.

I am starting to really feel like spring is around the corner! The temperatures are rising, the sun seems to appear more often and I am feeling much less ‘blah‘.

Normally, I do get towards the end of winter and say “I’m done with this, I want spring!” However this year, that feeling came MUCH EARLIER. Like the middle of January. I seriously struggled.

Plus two years of not being able to go on a hot, sunny vacation during the winter months did not help. Add in some issues with my truck starting (either it was the block heater or battery — both have since been fixed/replaced), and I found myself lazy, moody, and a lack of interest in life.

Pretty much, the vague idea of “SAD” – ‘Seasonal Affective Disorder’.
