    Default Paid the car off early!

    We used the $$ from selling the old dead cars (and a little) to pay off the car a few months earlier than we would have otherwise.

    YEAH!

    Way to go. It feels really good doesn't it.

    We paid off DH's truck last month. This month was the first month in our entire marriage we didn't have an auto payment. This month was also our 10yr ann and unfortunately we ended up blowing the old payment. We plan to get back on track with the May budget.

    You should be very proud of yourself.

    We just paid our van off and then immediately got hit with unexpected repairs! I'm thankful for my baby emergency fund. Congrats on getting closer to debt free.
