An introduction

Hello :) My name is Esther, and for the past few months I have grown increasingly preoccupied with personal finance, personal finance blogs, and living well on less. I have always managed my finances responsibly, but recently I've become much more focused on actively budgeting and being financially planful. This may be because I'm anticipating high cost goals and commitments in the near-ish future: getting married, starting a family, buying a home.

I've started this blog as an outlet for all of the finance junk whizzing around in my head, and in the hopes that it will help me stay motivated. My favorite blogs that I've found to date have been a mix of money and personal (SHAKING THE MONEY TREE tops my list, I love her!), so that's what I'm planning to do with my own. 

More posts will come with the nitty gritty details of my finances. For now, it's nice to meet you :)
