Thanks for stopping by Creating My Kaleidoscope! This blog is about our family’s mission to pay off debt and achieve financial semi-independence. Our strategy is to save money by living frugally and use side hustles to increase our income, but family is always our number one priority. In order to “do it all” (and then some) we have to be super productive with our time. And we like to have fun and relax once in a while too 🙂
