Need to remember how far I've come this year!

October 2nd, 2015 at 01:00 am

Lately, with all the new expenses and how much I am beginning to hate our current home, I am feeling a bit behind with our goals.

But we're not. And I just needed to look back at the changes over the year to see that!

In 2015,

I have:
-Paid off $15,019.95 in credit card debt that I came into the marriage with (Current CC Debt: $0)
-I paid off my car loan $1,595.93
-Purchased a crib $319.99
-Purchased a glider/ottoman $493.98
-Cash-flowed Gutter/Soffit Repairs $1933
-Cash-flowed car repair: $499.67
-Cash-flowed house painting $750


That is total change of $20,612.52 in debt/expenses

PLUS I have put $1500 into the New Home Fund YTD

*Please note that I say a lot of "I" because my husband and I have separate & joint accounts. He and I each wanted to pay off our debt from prior to the marriage. I don't have track of his debt payment, but he is almost done as well!

So what I need to remember, as of 10/1/2015, I have had a positive financial change in the amount of $22,112.52!!!!

    AWESOME!!!...siiiing, FREEDOM! I totally know what that feels like, remember it and savor it for tough times. What a fantastic amount of change, you are inspiring. I know that feeling of paying off huge credit card debts. When you can pay off the big ones, if you have a small one you can easily see the light. (we recently used one for a car repair, but it looks a lot easier, now a student loan. YOU ROCK, KEEP GOING, you inspire and encourage!
