Allow Me To Introduce Us

Hello!

For those of you who don’t know us and are wondering who we are and why we are doing this, allow me to introduce us. I am Jackie, my boyfriend’s name is Mike, and our dogson’s name is Cody. The three of us are residents of Waltham, MA (15-20 mins west of Boston). We rent a 1-bedroom basement apartment and have decided to get serious about life.

Like everyone else these days, we sometimes struggle to get by. We make it work (get it, ehh?), but we cheat along the way. We decided a good way to get motivated and stay the course is to make ourselves accountable and start a blog about our journey. So we invite all of you to come along as we try to figure out how to make life work. We will be posting about everything from decorating cheaply and temporarily (since we rent), cooking adventures, budgeting trials and errors, and everything in between. In fact, you’ll probably see a ton of posts about our high maintenance (and sometimes really bossy) Border Collie Mix.

We are under construction as they say, so pardon our appearance as we settle into our bloghome. We encourage everyone to subscribe to updates because we will be posting a lot and really would love input!
