Find a Penny, Pick it Up

So I'll let you in on a bit of my nerdiness. I go on walks with The Moose almost daily, about 5-6 times per week. Honestly, to call it walking is generous. I go on very leisurely strolls just to catch up on my podcasts. But the exciting part is I find money almost daily. It seriously amazes me how much I find! No, I don't find $100 bills or anything. But I find loose change most days, at least a penny. And the thing that amazes me is that I'm walking up and down the same streets daily. Today I found $0.13! I track my earnings for the month of July, 2013 here.


I like to let it pile up in the stroller cup holder so I can see the pile expanding. It's always a great day when I find a quarter. I average about $1 / week. I don't do anything with it, it's not like income or anything. It's like going Easter egg hunting everyday.

If you are in my neighborhood, feel free to throw loose change out your window. It would really make my day.

I really hate shiny silver beer bottle caps.

      My 1st blog comment! Yipee!!
      And maybe....I actually throw it in a big change jar. We'll cash that in for our trip to Europe in December. Hey, with all this found money I'll be able to buy an extra bottle of wine!
