    Default Can see the light at the end of the tunnel!

    Went over the numbers again last night. If all stays current and barring any catastrophies, we should be cc debt free in 3/2011! That's only 16 months away. I'm getting so anxious. We have been working at this for a very long time and I am finally beginning to believe we are going to succeed! I know that the time will go fast once school starts. I will be very busy again as I drive a school bus for the county. I won't have a lot of time to watch every penny like I do now. I am getting so excited thinking about the freedom we will have once this terrible burden is off our backs. We will be able to stash cash and breathe a lot easier!

    Life is good!!

    2012 Goals:

    1. Build up EF.
    2. Lose weight.
    3. Quit smoking.
    4. Stay within my monthly budget.
    5. Continue paying down debt.

    Things will go wrong but you have made significant progress.

    Keep up the good work.

    And doesn't it feel good to look back at the progress you've made??

    Story of my life. In 2007 we had 78000 worth of debt, and we climbed out under it, on top of paying for a surgery with cash, bought a house, had a foundation shift and $11000 in repairs later we are good to go.. then I hear the words "I'm pregnant!"

    Way to go! You are right, the time will fly and before you know it you will have met your goal.

    Keep up the good work.
