About us

My name is Rebecca and my husband's name is Michael. We got married May of 2024 in Vegas. We live in Indianapolis and are both "tree people" as he calls it. I went to Purdue University and double majored in wildlife science and forestry. My husband learned all of his trees on the job and from self study. I worked for the forest service in California for the summers for 5 years. I absolutely loved it. But it was going to keep me away from him too much. I also unfortunately got  DUI and was terminated earlier than planned. I am now at home, with my husband every day, with no consistent job yet and a roughly negative 27 thousand dollar net worth. His job is very hard on his body and I would like to see him CAPABLE of retiring before he is 50. Whether he chooses to or not would be his choice but I want to know that option is there for him as well as me. We currently do not have any children but would like to have some one day. I hope you enjoy our journey and stick with me. This blog will talk about the things I learn along the way whether that is through podcasts, books, experiences. We will also take a weekly look at our finances and a monthly deeper look. I also will just share general stories of our life and the things we are up to and stories of my travels back and forth to California and others.
