    Default Haven't been on much lately and good news

    Well I haven't been on much of late. I guess I have been in kind of a funk. We have been keeping our head above water but that is about it. However, I have been blessed to have found a job at a local private Christian School which I start on Friday. I am really excited about it and more than anything I am excited for the fact that we should be able to pay off some dr bills and a couple of other bills that have been hanging over our heads. I am going to try to be on more so that it can keep me on track and I wouldn't blow the money and not meet our goals of getting some savings and out from under debt. Anyway, it is good to be back.
