Budgeting Workbook | Unboxing, Flip Through & First Impressions

,

As we start to prepare for 2021, I embarked on a quest for the perfect cashflow planner. Yup. A paper planner., because I suck at keeping track of things if it’s solely digital.

I bought the Budgeting Workbook from Amazon for $9.01 CAD. It is a best-selling item for its category on Amazon and has received positive reviews. The one that said that the planner made budgeting “fun” intrigued me.

Immediately, I could see how these self-assessment tools and drills could be adapted to help music students do the same. Here are some of the tools and tips that my students and I have added into our practicing.

Work and Budo Modifications with a Back Injury

As some of you know, I injured my back a couple of weeks ago. No, I wasn’t doing anything really cool like one of our awesome Iaido or Jodo kata, or going really wild on the cajón. I was simply sitting poorly at my desk and twisted funny when I got up to grab something from the printer. That’s when I felt a terrible twinge in my lower back. Next thing I knew, my body completely closed in and I could barely walk.
