As many of you know by now, I paid off the last of my credit card debt today! I am so excited. Mostly about what it means for how I can live my life now. I feel like I can finally take a deep breath. I’ve put so much pressure on myself to pay off [...]

So, this is the last of these posts. How crazy is that? The next time I update you on my progress, I will be out of debt. I’ve thought several times to write a post about how excited slash impatient I am to be out of debt, but not only is that incredibly obvious, but [...]

I’m still on track! On track to be out of debt by the end of the year, that is. Good thing, because I am so ready and I really can’t think of a better way to start 2011. Strange to think there’s only one more of these mid-month update posts to go.

Progress! Not as much as I wanted after purchasing my ticket to San Francisco and dealing with some minor car trouble. But, October is one of those glorious months with three pay days (at the part time job), so I’m finally below $5,000 total, which means I’m more than 3/4 of the way done. I [...]

If you’re paying close attention, you’ll notice a big change from last month. It was a couple things. I was pretty conservative in August, because I knew there might be some unexpected expenses with the start of school. Once all of that passed, I was able to throw that money toward my debt. Then my school [...]

I haven’t made as much progress as I wanted to, but August has been and continues to be an expensive month. I went home, I had car expenses, I need to purchase another plane ticket to Washington, school is starting, and I had a time sheet issue that meant money I normally would have had [...]

It’s pretty awesome to be down to one card even if I don’t feel like I’ve made much progress since. It’s always been quite depressing to think that even when I make it to the last card, I’ll still have $10,000 to go, but now I’m taking it down. It feels pretty awesome actually. I [...]

Oh, so close! It was my goal to have the WF Visa paid off by this point in the month, but it’s not going to happen until my next pay day. It was already going to be a stretch, but then I threw myself off by forgetting to turn in my last timesheet at the [...]

I was feeling like I hadn’t made any progress, because May has been a slow month with smaller pay checks and I did do some spending, but apparently I have a short memory, because I’m still down almost $1500 from last month. I am striving to have the WF Visa paid off by this time [...]

I can’t say how awesome it feels to see the WF Visa (or the WTF! Visa, as Paige put it) in the 3,000 range. Somehow that just seems so much smaller than 4,000. I’m now more than half way done paying it off (the original balance was $7,500). It’s going to be mid-June before I’m [...]
