Weekly Money Check-Up: 6/11

1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on rent.

2. Today I am thankful for my balcony. If you follow me on Instagram, you are probably annoyed at the many pictures I take from my little seat facing plants by the railing and the trees that separate our apartment from our neighbors (like above). It’s my favorite place in my home. I love starting my mornings out there with a hot cup of coffee reading my Bible, spending my afternoons with my laptop blogging, and enjoying the left-over Christmas lights that hang on the railing in the evening.

3. Money can’t buy happiness. One free thing I did last week that made me happy was go on a bike ride with J Saturday morning. I gave him a bike for his birthday and it’s so fun to go riding together.

4. I will consider this week a success if I blog more than just once. It’s been a busy few weeks for me, both at work and after, but I’d like to continue to get into a writing routine even when life gets busy.

5. I am currently reading Game of Thrones, book 1. I’m about 65% of the way (according to Kindle), and enjoying it so far. It is so long though! I may have to move on to something else before I start the second one. Any good books you’ve read lately?
