today i made the final payment on my last credit card. (thank you tax refund.) it was scary putting that much money on a credit card, but it is all done. and i am certain i will feel better in a few days.
my next goal is to find all contact information and cancel every card i have open. how exciting. i may keep one open, the problem being it is easy to pull out a card when an 'emergency' happens.
i am also putting money in my savings account. there is not much but every little bit helps. i will keep growing it as best i can.
now my biggest debts are student loans. those are scary to me also, but i can begin paying on them just as i have any other debt - the thing is the interest is lower than my credit cards ;).
o and i am taking a vacation in a week. i am so excited about it. i have paid vacation that must be taken or i will lose it, so you better believe i am taking it. looking forward to getting into my car and driving, just driving. i actually have the money for a nice vacation that i do not have to remove from savings or borrow from any bill paying - see getting that credit card paid is already paying off :).
not certain where i am going yet. looks like i will take part of the vacation and go to dallas and then come back and head to kc. it will be nice to have 8 full days away from the office - yay. (actually it is not completely approved yet but being worked on, hope i get the answer soon because i am leaving in a week...)
i have some serious writing to get done before i head out too. it will be coming down to two classes ending and both have a final paper to be done. one class has 8-10 pages the other 4-6 pages. i have got some intense researching to do :). yay.
i am a little numb today. too many late nights/not being able to sleep well when i am sleeping. sure hope i can catch up in the next day or so.
the end.
