Finding & Enjoying Simple Pleasures
Written by Melissa Tosetti   
Tuesday, 09 March 2010

Life is wonderfully hectic right now and I am working at keeping my feet on the ground.  When I start to feel overwhelmed, I try to avoid the temptation to "live for the weekend" or push off having fun for another day.  Instead, I look for opportunities to have fun or to enjoy myself throughout the day.  Sometimes the pleasure comes in the form of a really good green apple or a serving of plain Greek yogurt with a drizzle of honey.  Sometimes the pleasure is stealing a few minutes to visit Facebook to check out what my long-distance friends and family are up to.  When I am working at Fearless, I love getting into a wrestling match with Dante or sitting for a few minutes and reading a book together.  I enjoy talking to Paul throughout the day about business, our plans for the weekend or life in general. 

I am thoroughly convinced that if I wasn't busy doing what I am doing now, I would be busy doing something else.  There are just too many cool things to do in life and I want to take full advantage of the - even when it gets "wonderfully hectic".  So when it does get busy like this, I remember to keep an eye out for those little pleasures.

The Savvy Life
Written by Melissa Tosetti   
Monday, 08 March 2010

 

So much has happened in the past five days, but the most exciting has to be the launch of our new name - The Savvy Life!
I have proudly published Budget Savvy for the past five years and during that time, as any good publication should, it has evolved. I love the name Budget Savvy and the idea it stands for, but that idea is now so much more than what the name implies.
 
The Savvy Life is spending smart and living rich. It is maintaining control of your finances on a day-to-day basis so you know exactly where you stand. It is saving money on the things that are not as important to you so you can afford to spend money on the things that are important to you.
