    Default Car Paid Early! BEF Funded! Credit Card Gone!

    I just set up our LAST CAR PAYMENT! WOO HOO!!!! Still very busy with Baby, who is going on 8 months old. But I needed to post this - we are SO EXCITED! We need a 4-door car, but we're going to enjoy NO CAR PAYMENTS for a good while! Now to fund that Used Car fund... and work on other steps, of course. The final bill from baby's birth is paid now, too. I would like to find a part-time job but it's not easy to leave her. We'll see. But

    WOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOO!!!



    edit: I forgot that I can just go home on weekends and do massages for the extra money. I'm so happy!

    Doesn't it feel like a small weight has lifted from your shoulders? I felt that way every time I paid something else off. WTG!!!
