    Default I need to sit down for a moment!

    Well I just sent my final payment to my last credit card and updated my signature.

    I am completely done with debt.

    not sure quite how I feel... I guess I mostly feel peaceful and of course proud of myself, because a year ago I would have never thought that I could do this.

    A actually think I feel like having a bit of a tear.

    Thanks to every one here for you support and ideas, I definately couldn't have done it with out you.
    Debt 1 - Paid in Full (originally $750)
    Debt 2 - Paid in Full (originally $2100)
    Debt 3 - Paid in Full (originally $3500)
    Debt 4 - Paid in Full (originally $4000)
    Debt 5 - Paid in Full (originally $3000)

    FFEF - Fully Funded with 6 months of expenses as of July 2009

    Next Step - House deposit

    Whoo-hoo! Way to go.

    Thanks every one, it was such a strange and quiet moment as I transfered the money accross and saw the balance go to zero...

    I do'nt know what I expected - maybe some streamers to start flying out of the computer screen? Instead it much more resembled a moment of personal reflection of where I have been and how I got here.

    It was nice.

    ok - well now on to fully funding the EF - I will still be here every day that's for sure - feel almost as if I need you all more then ever now - so that I can stay focused.
    Debt 1 - Paid in Full (originally $750)

    Debt 5 - Paid in Full (originally $3000)

    Well WOOOOOOO HOOOOOOO
    Congrats. What a wonderful feeling that must be. How could you have been quiet? If nobody was home I would have jacked up the music and danced around the house like a crazy woman.

    No matter how you celebrated. Congrats to you.
