Weekly Update and Words of Wisdom

This week has been a very busy week for me with going back to work after a 3 week vacation and working plenty of overtime.  My holidays were lovely, filled with a picnic and bbq’s, hanging out with my beautiful wife, chilling out with my mates, and taking in some small trips in and around our area. Next year we hope to head to England with a detour or 3 to Spain, Italy, and France. I’ll be doing all the planning for that so bring on the savings!

Although I love to blog I do work full-time (and then some) with odd hours every week. I’ve since realized how much time one needs to devote to a blog for it to gain momentum with the fans. Is it worth it? You know, only the blogger can answer that question. For me, it’s not a get rich, get famous, I’m better than you, bigger than you scheme. It’s a way to say, this is our journey and what we are doing,would you like to join us and share your experiences.

So I leave you today in hopes you do something for someone who needs it just because you want to and not because it’s taking time out of your day and time=money or time=fame. We all need to be thankful for what we have in life and no better time than with someone you can lend a hand to.

I hope your week has went well and thanks again for following and supporting Canadian Budget Binder!
