Hello Everybody: I’m Back!

Well, I am officially back to blogging. What started as a simple break from posting over the Christmas holidays inadvertently turned into a much more lengthy break from regular blogging than I had intended. It turned out to be much harder to start back up than I had planned.
Nevertheless, I am committed to continuing this blog both as a way for me to continue exploring personal finance and frugality issues, as well as a way to share what I have learned with others. If anything, the month off gave me a chance to decide if I really wanted to continue to work on the blog — and the answer is a definite yes.
Festival of Frugality
To start things off, I will be hosting the 166th (and as-of-yet unnamed) Festival of Frugality next week. I really enjoyed hosting the Festival last time around, and am looking forward to being able to share some great entries from around the frugality community. If you’re interested in submitting a post for the festival, as usual, head over to the carnival page.
Stay Tuned
In addition, I have some ambitious plans for the blog over the next couple of months, including more frequent posting, regular features, a new blog theme, and more. I would love to hear any feedback you might have for me on where I can go from here, so please don’t be shy.
So please stick around!

hooray! glad to hear it my friend….looking forward to seeing whatcha got this year
