Can’t Take My Eyes Off These Blogs #7

It’s the end of the week again and time for another roundup. While the weather is beautiful right now, we had a taste of winter earlier this week. I work a few times a month at a satellite office in Telluride and have to drive over Lizard Head Pass to get there. Lizard Head is well over 10,000 feet, so when it rains at lower elevations, I often have to drive through snow. It was a bit slushy on my way home this week, and I noticed a truck off the road. Luckily everyone was OK, but the truck that went over the bank was not going anywhere. Turns out the stranded drivers lived less than a mile from me, and I was able to give them a ride home. Strange way to make new friends!

Giveaways you should check out:

Michelle at Making Sense of Sense  is on WordPress now and, to celebrate, is giving away $100 in Paypal cash!

Veronica at Pelican on Money got a new writer and is giving away 2 $25 PayPal cash prizes!

Crystal at Budgeting in the Fun Stuff is giving away a Fincon Swag Bag and tomorrow is the last day to enter!

Eyes on the Dollar got around a bit this week. I had not one, but two guest posts. I love these guys for giving me the chance to write for their awesome blogs.

      1. OMG…I was reading your blog tonight and it dawned on me that I asked this question (so I had to come back and find this post)! HAHA. I totally knew what you did; I was just reading so many blogs the day I commented on this that I didn’t make the correlation and then I saw “satellite office in Telluride” and I was like ‘oh…that sounds awesome! I want that job.’

        So sorry, Kim. I’m a moron sometimes. 🙂

        1. Someday, I’ll do a post about the ins and outs of living in a resort town. It’s nice to visit, but I wouldn’t want to live there.
