Hey guys!
I just started a new networking group over at LilaGuide… It is a great place for Moms to gather – there are LOTS of different groups there already. It is a new community that is really wanting to grow. So much, it is giving the first 10 members of my network a $5 giftcard to Target… 
So stop by and post a message, topic, or just introduce yourself – I would love to see you there!

Since I am talking finances, I also thought I would review this site: www.refinance.com. The economical climate we live in right now, is very volatile – especially for those who have started their own businesses or are working from home. The nature of the housing market in the US right now is down right scary. Every dollar in the monthly budget counts. So how can you stretch that dollar?
Take a look at your mortgage payment. Home loans with high or variable interest rates may be draining your finances. Take a look at your interest rate. Move from that adjustable rate ARM into a fixed rate mortgage. It may be time to do a mortgage refinance.
Refinance.com is a great resource for this kind of refinance. They offer competitive rates, low closing costs, and fast closing so that you can save money right away. According to their site, the interests rates right now for a 30 year fixed mortgage are between 5.625 – 5.907. Now may be the time to think about home refinance.
You should definitely take a look at your mortgage rate and see if a refinance would be a good idea for you. Lowering your mortgage is a great first step in getting your finances in control.

Every now and then I will do a site review on a site that I think it relevant … Repairmycreditow.com is one of those sites…
I know that sometimes credit card debt can get out of hand – especially for home business owners. The key to home business success is managing this debt and other financial issues. It is very important to keep a positive credit rating – especially if you are making a big purchase later (new equipment, leasing a building, etc). So what do you do if your credit is less than stellar now? Think about credit repair.
Repairmycreditnow.com is a company that offers help in this area. They run a credit repair service that people use to help clean up their credit rating. They help by regularly reviewing the data held by the Credit Bureaus and creditors. They go over their findings and take care of your changes.
I am not sure what fees are involved with this service, but if you have a low credit score because of too many open accounts, or inaccuracies on your credit report, this service could be of huge help to you.
It takes time to repair credit. It helps to be proactive in making sure your credit report is accurate and up to date…
