This weekend I went to Boston to visit some friends. I had two experiences in the car that caught my attention – one a very ordinary miracle, and one an “angels are watching over me” miracle.

At some point when I was in college, I came up with the mantra, “Do the hard thing FIRST!” I put it up on signs, which solicited many giggles – we were all frisky teenagers, after all. 🙂

It occurred to me today that I haven’t done a financial update since the beginning of February – and there’s good stuff to report, so let’s get caught up!

A few weeks ago I took my car in to a local auto shop. It’s a place that offers really cheap oil changes and inspections and it’s convenient to my apartment, so it generally works out pretty well.

The last week has been filled with stunning highs and unspeakable lows. My mind feels like it’s filled with a thousand bees that won’t stop buzzing.
