Paying down the CC

October 10th, 2006 at 08:54 am

Just put another 1100 on the DW CC. I hope to be done just after the new year with this debt.

I am in the midst of having a series of no-spend days. This is day four. Hopefully I'll have some more money together for the 20 dollar challenge soon.

The wife and I have settled into a courteous routine. Her birthday is coming up and I'll be taking her out for dinner. She wants a leather jacket and I can swing that if it is not too expensive.

I am feeling very tired. On we go.

    You are so good to her, she should consider herself very lucky!

    Be sure and take care of yourself, too! This has been draining on you.

    Julie, in the end I count myself pretty lucky!

    JanH, I am trying to protect my health. It is draining at times though!Smile

    Celebrate the fact that the cc debt will be paid off in January! You've done a great job with this. I know tapping into DD's college fund was a blow, but like the "experts" always say, kids can get funding for college (loans, grants, etc.). Nobody's funding your life/retirement. So though it may not feel like it, you're probably ahead of the game by getting the debt paid off and starting from scratch.

    As always, you seem to have a great outlook about all of this. Keep plugging away...

    mjrube94,

    Interestingly enough it was pointed out that any money I had saved would be pointed out on her FAFSA form for aid. The spending while bad may not have been as bad as I first thought.

    After screwing up like that, she still has the nerves to ask for a leather jacket for her birthday... I'm sorry PRICEPLUS, I just wouldn't have that kind of patience. I admire you for the way you are handling this. Very gracious...

    In point of fact I asked her what she wanted for her birthday. She can't get into any accounts but her own and I am not on any CC's of hers.
    I am trying to live as normally as possible for my own sanity.
