~ All is Well ~

OH My Goodness!

Hello,

I can not believe it has been since Dec 2006 since I have been here.

Time just gets away from you. Speaking of time, I also cant believe that it has been over 2 years now since we left our little homestead nestled in the Ozarks.   We keep trying to find our way back home, but God has not yet made the path known.    We thought it looked good for awhile, when dh was offered a job  with another health care industry back home. However due to the debt we have occured (credit cards) 2 car payments and various other things, we could not take what they offered to us.      It made me sick!  Its sooo easy to start to live a little bit at a time beyond your means.   Now can you guess what my goal in life currently is?    To become debt free!    Our tax money will go towards our debt reduction.  I am making it a priority to clamp down on all expenses.  I am trying to read every thing that I can get my little hands and eyeballs on to motivate ,encourage and provide me with all the info I can retain to get back on track.   

Self reliant, simple living, debt free and healthy country living  is what I am shooting for!   I've got the place and land~just have to find our way back!

Nice to be back~Hope all is well with everyone as I have no idea because I have not read a blog since DEC.

Blessings,

Take it one day at a time and do with out as many extra's is what we have done and are still doing. We pd off all of our credit cards with our IRS check and do not buy anything unless we have the cash to buy it. Things are going to be tight as we have 1 major bill for $800 that we still have to pay off but it is a no intrest bill so we are working very hard at it. I do not know everything nor try to tell anyone that I do, but this had been a hard road for us and will continue to be.
Hope to see you here more.

Getting out of debt

08:48, Thursday, April 5, 2007 .. Posted by Fiona

I read a great idea for getting bills paid off. You pay the minimum on all your bills, but try to pay off your smallest one quickly. Then roll that payment into the next one due keeping the others ones at the minimum until the second one is paid off. Next, roll that payment into the next one and so on. It really works!

Good luck with getting debt free...it's a blessing! Fiona
