Week 1 - Sadie's Introduction Blog Post

    Hello! My name is Mercedez, but I also go by Sadie, and it is much easier to write "Sadie's Blog" rather than "Mercedez's Blog". 

I enjoy watching all kinds of TV shows, and lots of movies too! I love spending time with my dog, Tommy, and shopping, but I am trying to work on being better with my money.
