another one gone
after a very stressfull week last week when a payment came out before it was supposed to dropped our checkiog acct real low
dh got paid ( as usual ) i got paid for my 1 weekend a month job ( which is a very good pay i get 1x a month BUT i went 5 weeks without this check rather than the usual 4 weeks i usually go- i switched weekends to help someone-; which threw me onto a later pay period ) and i had a decent check from my main job .
was pushed back a bit -car repairs etc i had to toss on a visa - but got the EF back up where it needs to be and paid off the Kohls - and next weeks pay which is close to or possibly more than a FT pay by the end of this weekend --will pay towards the visa for the car money - and this is the next acct i am working on paying off also so i figured just let me get kohls out of the way and have one less to worry about each month.
so another one down .

well since i am kind of following the snowball method it will be slowing down when i get to the visa and mastercard and then onto the car - mortgage etc ( if ever )
and i was wrong it was 6 weeks with no pay for my once a month job rather than 4 weeks*~Debbi~*
