I’ve been unusually unplugged this week - I’m enjoying the respite, but will be ready to get back onto the blogging grove next week. In the meantime, here are some holiday-related links.
JD at Get Rick Slowly is requesting your Financial Success Stories over the long weekend - I’m hoping to write my “paid off $17k […]
It’s been a very strange week here, between the weather and our clean-up efforts, my writing hasn’t been very focused, so thanks for bearing with me. In the spirit of all the crazy stuff that’s going on around here, this week’s links are completely unrelated to each other (but stuck a cord with me):

Taxes are on […]
TGIF - Thank God It’s February!
January was a rough month for me - several unexpected bills and a persistent cold combined with the fact that I’m on a diet made me a grumpy BankerGirl. I’m so glad that it’s now February and we’re one month closer to spring. I’m not the only one who’s thankful […]
Logo Contest Winner
The winner of BankerGirl’s logo contest is… Mary! I am still trying to figure out how to get it formatted correctly on the site - but this will give you an idea of what it will look like:
Thanks Mary for the great concept! And thanks to all of you who submitted logos and […]
I’ve been a little slow in my posting so far this New Year, but it brings me great joy to share with you some of the great content that others have been putting on the InterWeb in the past couple of weeks:
