Gulp!

After one and a half months of the craziest summer of my life so far, I feel like I can finally come up for air. Whew! Has it been busy!

Along with the busy, there’s been alot of soul searching and just getting real with myself and God.

Out of this has come a very hard decision, and it is with a sentimental, yet excited heart that I write this post.

It has become quite apparent to me that I simply do not have the time to maintain Simple Saving Savvy any longer. There is simply no way I can keep up the pace and creativity, still save money for my family and minister to my family.

And to be quite honest, I was so busy pursuing my vision instead of God’s, that I simply became burned out.

After praying about it for the past couple of months, I do not feel like God is saying stop altogether, but rather to go a different direction – the direction He had in mind all along, and that is to share my own journey – not try to be all things to all people in the money saving department.

After much thought and advise from wise friends, I have decided that the best way to go about this change is to re-brand entirely. So, my friends, effective immediately, I will no longer be updating Simple Saving Savvy.

Instead, Maria and I are creating a brand new blog called: Homemaking Unplugged.

I’ll be blogging about my personal journey in homemaking. I’ll still be sharing deals and money saving strategy but it will be more about what I’m doing for my family and in my home and less about scoring the next sweet deal.

It’s still under construction and pretty simplistic, but I’m getting back to blogging at the new site so be sure to check it out.

There are those of you who have been with me since the beginning, and to you I am forever grateful! I hope you’ll visit the new digs.

    Count me in! I really did not know how you juggled it all. Half the time I can’t even clip my coupons. I am looking forward to what the Lord has in store for you and what we can glean from your experiences. No pressure of course! Blessings friend on the new journey!
