    Default It finally hit me.....

    I thought when I made that last big payment to my last credit card, that there would be some kind of fireworks...some big moment. Well it finally sunk in and rather then jumping for joy..I broke down and cryed tears of relief. I just want to thank the village and all of you for all your support.

    When I made my last debt payment I think I was just stunned for two or three days.

    That is just wonderful!!! Congratuations!

    I can definitely see "tears of relief/joy" as a perfect response!

    Now, it's time to celebrate with some chocolate!

    CONGRATS!!!!
    Everytime I pay something off, I seem to be the only person in the house. Sometimes it is a huge sigh of relief, sometimes I do a happy dance.
