    Default More hours!!

    I got more hours at work, only for the next couple months, but we really need it. I'm so excited 10 more hours a week for about the next 8 weeks. Going to snowball that money on the debt woo hoo!!

    That is fantastic! You are so fortunate to get extra hours when many companies are cutting hours. Congrats!

    Good work. Our employer has upped our hours too (despite being short handed, they have opted to give out more overtime instead of taking on several new hires -- although they have done some hiring recently.)

    I'm hoping the news of the recession starting to end and the economy starting to recover will result in more overtime for those who are working and also the company taking on more employees -- we are having a much better year than last year already. Hope it keeps up.

    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!"
