May was a bit of a slow month around here. I had a lot going on in real life, so most of my GRS plans were put on hold. (In reality, they’re likely to remain on hold until August.) Meanwhile I’m falling further behind on my e-mail! Also, I couldn’t devote as much time in May as I would have liked to crafting longer entries. Still, I was particularly pleased with the following posts:

May 1st: A collection of financial literacy resources
May 6th: There is no secret: The myth of the law of attraction
May 7th: Easy ways to spend less on your computer (a guest post from Cliff Barbier)
May 9th: Coping with unemployment: Blogging is not the answer
May 17th: Quicken hacks: 25 hints, tips, and tricks
May 22nd: Why frugality is an important part of personal finance
May 24th: Personal finance on film: The Farmer’s Wife
May 25th: Proper care and feeding of your credit score
May 30th: How to improve your fuel economy: 23 top tips for better gas mileage

Thanks for all of these tips and advice. Your blog and others actually inspired me to get mine going. I post my first entry later tonight. Woo hoo! I never knew a blog could require so much time and attention.

My wife and I were also inspired by the post re: 101 things in 1001 days, and we’re both in the process of developing our lists. (I did not realize how hard it is to come up with 101 concrete goals until I tried!)

Thanks once again, you deserve to enjoy “real life” and the wonderful weather we’re having right now in Oregon!

Take care - John, a dumb coder.
