    Default thanks to all of your help

    and motivation, my debt went from 4376.43 on January 1, to 3467.87 today, 57 days later! I know that is not a ton, but it sure does make a difference in the way I feel! I'm thinking, if I can do that , then maybe I can do that much and more in the next two months. Thank you so much, you all help out alot.
