    Default Starting Over again

    Hi everyone
    I haven't been here in about 6 months

    We were doing very good getting ready for a baby.
    Once the baby came, we lost track of our finance.

    We got carried away buying all sort of "wants" for ourselves and the baby.
    Also, me and the baby have been visiting (long-distance) families and spend all of our emergency savings.

    We have been spending way more than we can afford.

    This month, we got $150 NSF charges and late on some bills.

    I'm so so mad at us for doing this to ourselves.

    Now, time to get our finance together again.

    Just want to stop by and say "hi" to everyone.

    Hello! It's frustrating when you get off track, but at least you've realized that you need to get back onboard! Best of luck to you!

    Welcome back! It is easy to fall off track - the main thing is that you have come back on here!
