W.T.F.F. (Working Towards Financial Freedom)

                      Hey All! I’m taking a little detour from finances with today’s post. Why, you ask? Well over the weekend your girl SDot was nominated for the Sunshine Blogger Award! Completely unexpected but very humbling. I’ve been blogging for about 4 months now and this is the second time I’ve had a fellow blogger nominate me for a peer-recognition award. I’m ecstatic knowing that people are enjoying my blog’s content. 

           Summertime is usually the time to escape the city, work, our normal and everyday lives and relax, decompress, party or even explore. With the current pandemic, many of us may not be traveling this year or at least not traveling as far as we’d like. So in the spirit of the good old days, which include reminiscing with friends about past vacations and Google Photos constantly reminding me that not too long ago my friends and I were ‘livin’ our best lives’ on the beach, I figured I’d write this post. I’m also writing this post to convey a strong warning from lessons I learned in the past; so if you are considering hitting the road or flying the friendly skies soon, or for those of you who are like me and plotting their great escape for 2021, just remember, before you go, don’t forget to tell your bank.

                On Saturday August 8th, President Trump signed executive orders to provide relief for Americans who are struggling financially due to COVID. The action came with mixed reviews and questions regarding the legality of the orders . Without getting into the politics, I’ll break down what the executive orders mean and, most importantly, what they may mean for you.

It's almost here! Only one more day until the Disney+ premiere of the award-winning musical ‘ Hamilton ’, written by Lin-Manuel Miranda ! You can’t see me right now but trust that I am smiling from ear to ear.😁

                    Hey All!  I’m taking a little detour from finances with this week’s blog posts. I figured folks wouldn’t mind. I mean, it’s a short week due to the holiday. Many people are probably taking the time to visit friends and family ( Please be safe, we are still in a pandemic! ). Others, including myself, are counting down to the premiere of Hamilton on Disney+ (4 more days and I can’t wait!). Therefore, I thought this week would be the perfect opportunity for you all to get to know SDot a little better!
