Happy Friday, friends! What are you up to this weekend? Are you surviving The May with some of your faculties intact?

Turns out I'm not the only one with just a tiny bit of angst about money. If you haven't commented yet, I'd love to hear your thoughts and questions...where should we go with the research? Becca points out what I think is a huge sticking point: kids, especially their "experiences and extracurriculars...They are especially hard given that society has changed some and EVERYONE seems to be doing it! It’s hard to leave your kids out of the social aspect of activities." I totally agree and will be prioritizing this in research for the next round of the spiral. [Insert nerd emoji]

Speaking of...

Today I donated blood for the first time in years, and guess what, y'all? A pint is about...10% of your total blood volume. Tithe that blood, babyyy! Find a blood drive near you, and go for it! They gave me Fig Newtons afterward!

Helpful!
