Video Question of the Week

The video question of the week will resume on September 21.

TSP Show #17 - Let’s Start a Holiday Budget

LISTEN TO SHOW #17

I know it’s still technically summer time, but now is a great time to start saving and starting a budget for holiday shopping. I know holiday shopping can be fun, but it’s not fun going into debt from holiday shopping and carrying over that debt into a new year. So, sit back and listen to show #17 and let’s make a plan to do some smart holiday budgeting, planning and shopping.

We’re Still Here

I know you think Tales of a Single Parent has died, but we”re still here. Sometimes life takes over and gets in the way. Tales of a Single Parent will be relaunching and getting back to the regularly scheduled program starting Saturday, September 21.

I hope your summer was wonderful. Ours started off wonderful, but kind of fell into the black hole. We (my oldest daughter and I) were hit by a drunk driver on July 29. It was a horrible accident and I sustained some pretty bad injuries (a broken hand and a 2+ inch laceration on my leg that resulted in 23 stitches), but thankfully my daughter did not walk away with anything similar to what I had. We are recovering and the healing is going well. We’re just thankful to be alive.

Here are a few photos of the damage:

I’m just getting back online and I still have to fix the RSS feed, which is how you all subscribe to the show. So be patient with me, I am trying to get that fixed ASAP.

Until September 7 - enjoy the rest of your summer and have a great first day back to school.

Bernie Mac dies at the age of 50

I cannot believe he is dead. This is quite a shock. Sarcoidosis is a nasty disease http://tinyurl.com/6ku8br
