I hate dealing with money. I really do. But today I'm grateful for not one but two things related to the gruesome task of budgeting and managing money.
First, several months ago, the fantabulous Miss Anna made me a ledger-style spreadsheet to keep track of our expenses. I knew exactly what I wanted, but couldn't find a template for it anywhere on the web. (It's so rare that Google lets me down.) So Anna created a custom Excel spreadsheet that does everything I need it to do. It's awesome, and I love it, and I love that she was willing to make it for me.
Second, I'm grateful for the RS financial seminar I attended last Thursday. It was entertaining, eye-opening, and unlike any other financial seminar I'd ever been to (yes, I've actually been to a few). It gave me hope that in spite of a few, er, challenges, we really can get where we need to go financially. I'm very grateful for that.

I wasn't able to make it to the RS meeting but I heard it was good. I sent Ryan as our representative but he has yet to give me a report on it. I think it was a mistake sending him because he doesn't do any of the budgeting. He "knows" what's going on, but not really. . .
It was great. He was funny! I thought more people would've been there.
