My Summer Vacation

Do you remember when you were a kid going back to school and sharing with your friends all the fun things you did on your summer vacation? For the first time in more than 40 years I had an all summer vacation. And, it was wonderful! My husband and I went to Reno with friends and to Missouri for a family reunion.  My friend Nancy and I went to Northern Virginia to spend time rubber stamping with friends. My husband and I went to the Kitsap BlueJacket baseball games, played golf, walked our dogs, and spent time gardening. I did lots of rubber stamping and hosted several stamping workshops. Wow!

Living Financially Independently

Independence Day is the perfect time to determine your goals to live financially independently. There are more resources available than ever before to help you create a healthy financial life. There are newsletters, websites, blogs, teleseminars, radio shows and conferences. I’ve listed several resources at the end of this article.

The first step in creating your financial independence plan is to determine your goals. Consider making short, medium and long term goals. Your goals must be in writing. Putting your goals in writing crystallizes them and gives them more force. If you keep your goals in only your head, you’ll forget them. We keep so much information in our heads that it’s hard to keep it all straight.
