Making Money Journal

It has been a quiet week over at the MMJ household.  We are prepping some rooms for a new paint job.  This is going to take quite some time as there is a lot of “junk” to move around or get rid of.  I expect several weekends of painting.  We have also been throwing out the thought of moving into a bigger house as we are being overrun with special needs equipment.

Here are some of my favorite reads from this week.

• Everyone’s favorite ProBlogger Darren Rowse discusses The iPhone 3G as a Blogging Tool - My Review:  I have no use for the phone right now, but if I were a profitable blogger, a phone like this with a keyboard sounds like an ideal.  Sony Ericsson is coming out with the Xperia X1 later this year and if marketed well, could make quite the blogging tool.
• Patrick at Cash, Money Life asks Do We Need Another Stimulus Check?: If it does happen, I would be replenishing the emergency fund with it.
• glblguy at Gather Little by Little asks How is your Christmas savings fund doing?:  Umm, yeah, see above.  Haha, just kidding.  Seriously, we have been discussing scaling back this year and hope to pull it off.  I have taken this post to heart and have begun saving a little extra to one of our MM accounts that we only use for our daughter’s  tuition.  We can tap into that without worry.
• Jonathan at MyMoneyBlog offers Microsoft Live CashBack Promotion: 70% Off Magazines and More: Looks like another alternative to eBates, which I love.  I will have to give it a try.

So there you have it.  Have a good weekend and I hope to continue my blogging activity next week.
