You might be wondering what exactly a home binder is and why you need one? A home binder is simply one central place to store/organize various documents and important information such as bills, insurance info, and even important dates like birthdays. By keeping all this information in one place, you know exactly where you can find it and trust me, it will make your life so much simpler.

Weekend Recap
I could have used more one day. I know I say that most weekends, but really. Just one more. And technically I had a three day weekend since I took Friday off to head to Ikea to pick up a few things for some projects around the house.
