Week 2 Update.....We're Getting Serious People!

So the last week has been really interesting.  I applied for, interviewed and got a job!!! Yay me!  This should help considerably put real dent in our debt.

We also cleared out our garage and some other miscellaneous spots in the house, in order to sell some things on Craigslist and have a yard sale.  So far so good!  We have made enough that I will be able to pay off a debt that currently costs us $603.56 per month.  This will allow us to make our other payments on time an start to put a dent in other small debts that will add up to more savings per month.  Our plan is to then put that money towards other debt.  We paid off $362 in debt this week.  Again, this isn't anything "extra", just our normal payments.  Wish us luck!!!

We still do not have any money in savings.  This needs to change SOON!  Our plan, since we are most closely following Dave Ramsey's plan, is to quickly get $1,000 dollars in our savings accounts for emergencies.  He does say to catch up on any bills that you are behind on first.  So that is the plan for now.  CATCH UP!!!  We aren't super behind, but enough that we get a couple of calls per week.  Nothing is going over the 30 day mark, but it is really stressful none the less.

So BIG win this week with the debt!!! Got a job-CHECK; Made some extra money to go towards debt-CHECK; Didn't add any more debt-CHECK!!!



Gotta get help from the Hubster!  He's the tall one.  

My Cleaning Look.  Scary I know.  And no I will not do a tutorial on this look.  :)


Almost done!! Again, thank you HUBBY! You're the best.
