Life happens, Murphy visits, how do you keep it from making you feel stalled on your debt reduction/ budget keeping attitude?
Debt reduction was off to a great start. Feeling like it was something that could be accomplished.
Today I received a small paycheck from a job I did a two month back.
Had great plans for it. Most likely, it was going to be extra on debt which was making me super happy or it was going to get a need (if the clearance sale and right item can me along at the same item).
Then I headed down stairs and find that the sewer backed up.
So...
I'm waiting on the plumber and the cost involved with that.
Trying hard to remember that it is great that I received the job paycheck today and that it will be easier to pay the plumber cash.
But how do you keep from feeling like Murphy is out to thrall you in your debt? How do you pick yourself up, dust your self off, and start back on the debt reduction plan after Murphy visits/ after life happens.
