helping daddy pack

Last night Drew decided to help Dad pack his bag for his outing to the gym.

We didn't know he was assisting in this endeavor until Charles was getting his gym bag ready after we put Drew to bed.

Apparently, these are the items Drew thinks Daddy needs when working out:

1. A Laurie Berkner CD (so Daddy can exercise to "Pig On Her Head"?)
2. A small, pink flashlight (in case the power goes out at the gym, maybe)
3. A half-eaten chocolate-chip rice cake (a post-workout snack!)
4. A squeeze bottle of Hellman's mayonnaise (...umm...protein? carbs?)

Today, by the way, is my two-year blogaversary. In celebration, I will link to my most popular post. This post was written almost two years ago, and it's still getting comments. Yes, that's right - after TWO years, Evenflo still has not managed to simplify their Exersaucer instructions to the point where normal, non-rocket-science-space-engineer people can put them together.

Way to go...losers.

So. Speaking of things that are hard to put together, we're now in the market for a playset for our thriving young child. Yes, we got our tax return, and, as is our tradition, rather than squirreling it away in savings or putting it responsibly in a 401K or Roth IRA or some kind of college fund for Drew, we're going to spend it. All of it. Well, most of it. Who am I kidding? Probably all of it and then some.

This should be fun. Between us, Charles and I have 30 years of education, three college degrees, about 17 years of military experience and 40 years of work experience...and I'm willing to bet we won't be able to put together a playset that, according to the website, involves "Easy Setup in 4 hours estimated time when 2 adults participate in construction."

Don't worry. I'll post pictures.

Don't ever apply for a credit card without considering all the details. The best way to choose the right credit card is to make an apple-to-apple comparison. A great site that helps to do that is

It is absolutely obvious that young people have very little knowledge of personal finance. Even some of the college students think that the money from credit cards is free. And not only young people are ignorant about credit cards. The best way for them to choose the right credit card is read the details. There is a great site to compare credit card offers

You can't always have cash to pay for things you need to obtain immediately. For such occasions banks offer credit cards which differ in purpose and features like interest rates, rewards, fees. But you need to build good credit history to be able to use all the opportunities credit cards give. At
