Countdown...222

The countdown is coming down to my birthday (December 22!).. It took me a few years growing up.. and acknowledging & celebrating OTHERS for my birthday.. My birthday is so close to Christmas (and I'm a twin), so as kid/teenager I always felt left out.. because everyone was more worried about Christmas and the last minute shopping, stocking stuffers, wrapping.. you know what I mean, that I didn't feel it was focused on me... until one day, my therapist in my 20's said, "why don't you celebrate yourself by celebrating those you love; instead of trying to seek that attention.".. Great idea! So.. i started that.. and it felt so rewarding.. to help out, give more donation wise.. drop off a flower to someone who I love or just to share with someone MY birthday.

A few years ago, I gave a friend $$ ($222) who was struggling. I like #'s.. 222..per the angels means, "everything is going to be alright". (my favorite # is 8!) Anyway.. this whole blog post, is really about YOU.. Catch me on my Facebook feed of "Get Personal with Pattie" for an amazing offer that I will be giving away on my birthday.. 1222! I'm excited to share my LOVE of #thebudgetmom & really hope I can help someone as much as she has helped me and helped myself with my finances.

Go follow me on Facebook..someone has to win it! A week away..

thanks!
