    Default The Van Is Finally Paid Off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I can't believe it!!!!!!!!! Actually I can, lots of blood sweat and tears. We bumped up the payment to 700 dollars which was tight. My neighbour was the teller at the bank and I said.....what no confetti or fireworks linda?????
    She says she hears that a lot when people are on their last payment, disgust, all they do is stamp that little piece of paper and your off. Hmm....I was hoping for at least a few noise makers and a for she's a jolly good fellow! Oh well, PAID OFF feels great!

    Woo hoo!! I will be right there with you in about three weeks
    We're also paying $700, the last payment will be just barely $600 though.

    Wow~ That's a large payment!

    What are you planning to do with the $700 you used to spend on the van?
