I can't believe another week has just flown by. This weekend I'm getting a chance to go camping with my wife and I've been looking forward to it for a while. It'll be even nicer that a cold front will be moving in over the weekend getting some fall weather down in our neck of the woods. Here's some interesting posts from my fellow bloggers from this week.

- Income Update - December 2012
December's income was lower than what I'd averaged through the first 11 months of 2012 but was still great at almost $6,500. It wasn't a great month for expenses but considering how much I went over budget on a few areas I'm happy that...
- Income Update - October 2012
October's spending was right in line with August and September which is good because it hasn't increased but it's still higher that where I would like for it to be. I was hoping to be able to get my spending down to the $1,300 mark but I...
