Fun at the Carnivals This Week

This week has been a busy one for me. My time spent after work has been used searching the internet for jobs for my husband. He’s been working on creating a killer portfolio of his work as well as doing many projects around the house. Now that we are open to moving, we have to get done some of the repairs to the house we have been putting off. We won’t do all of them (because we don’t have money to do all of them), but we are choosing the ones that have the greatest impact on being able to sell the house. There are so many houses for sale in Michigan, and in the relatively low populated where I live, there are almost 500 homes listed on the local MLS. It’s a tough market.

I’ve also been working to catch up on all of my emails. There are a few of you still waiting for a reply, and I’ve been going through them the past few days. My goal is to clear out my inbox by the end of the day today. What that also means is that I will be writing quite a few articles today pointing to some articles of interest that readers have sent me.

Since I’ve been pretty occupied, I haven’t had much time to cruise the blog-o-sphere. So this week I will let you know about two carnivals. There is plenty of reading there if you are interested:

The Carnival of Debt Reduction is over at The Amatureist Financial Journey this week. I submitted What Happens When the Tooth Fairy is in Debt.

The Carnival of Personal Finance is at Dough Roller. I submitted Five Words That Sum Up Our Debt Payoff Success.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!
