Thanks to another wonderful website, www.pinktruth.com, I was discussing with some efriends today just what each of us has accomplished this first quarter of 2010. That got me to thinking about just where I was a year ago in terms of the debt snowball...
In looking back at older posts, I can see that just a year ago I still had a car payment AND I still had a home improvement loan, credit card, and student loan. TODAY I am close to paying off our final credit card. Then, I will just have the student loan. A year from NOW, we just may be DEBT-FREE!!
I am a wife and mother living in a one-career household. I have begun making decisions to take control of our financial future (including taking on small jobs that fit into my life and using the $ earned to pay off bills). One of the things that is keeping me focused and motivated is posting my progress on this blog and sharing what I am learning along the way.

Taking Necessary Precautions
Well, I tried to avoid it for as long as I could. I didn't want to require anyone to register with the blog in order to post a comment. However, I have had so many spam posts of a "Nigerian Scam" persuasion, that I'm forced to require it.
If you ever wish to post a comment, just know that registration is only there to hopefully deter the phishers out there. I look forward to your words of support, suggestion, or otherwise.
Sincerely,
SnoBaby

$4,200 paid to CC Since Jan. 1!!!
Again, I've let this blog fall by the wayside. However, I have NOT stopped making forward progress in dropping the debt. Since that last post, I've paid an additional $4,200 towards our final credit card. If I were to take a quick peak, I could tell you the exact total we have left, but I'm rather lazy. So, I'll ballpark it...we have just about $8,000 left on that card.
Each time the number in the thousands place goes down, I feel the momentum and excitement building!!
