    Default Soldiers and Sailors Act--UPDATE

    So, just had to share---our mortgage got reduced from 1043 minimum to 971 minimum while Zac is gone! I'm going to continue paying 1050 like we have budgeted so my principal will be reducing even faster!

    I was able to pay down lots of our debt while dh was in Iraq. Unfortunately, it did not last as we have more debt than ever now. That 6%helps out a great deal.
