    Default Hello from deep south

    Hi everyone,

    I've been lurking a few days and like what I see! I especially think I will enjoy some of the challenges - some things will be totally doable for me - like the change jar and building an emergency fund.

    I'll be retiring in April and want to be debt-free! My house is paid for, just need to pay off 14,369.00 on a car and 2,000 on a CC.

    My downfall in spending is eating out. DH and I commute to work together and he doesn't like bringing lunch. We're also guilty of stopping for a breakfast biscuit too many mornings.

    I also love books and girly stuff like makeup but I've been doing much better with that.

    Debbie

    Thanks everyone!

    Daphne - I can't believe I've met someone who even KNOWS where Wetumpka is! Small world indeed. Troy State is a great school. DS went to TSUM for a year before transferring to University of Alabama - ROLL TIDE!! (Sorry, couldn't resist)

    Love your name Daphne.
