  1. girl...I have gone through all your blog posts pretty much and have decided that I would like you to become my new best friend. ;)Its so fascinating to me how God uses people and how different we all are.I am a super organzied person but not financially. Infact I came to the computer this morning to look for resources to organize my art business. Im just so lost when it comes to money. Spreadsheets, envelopes etc... I will definitly be coming back here! Thanks for devoting your time to writing here. You have inspired me today!
