It’s October, and about 1 year ago we declared war on our debt. I honestly can’t believe it’s been a whole year, and I can’t believe how far we’ve come. If you had told me last year that we actually did have room in our budget, I wouldn’t have believed you either. Read our past…
We declared war on out debt 9 months ago. It doesn’t seem that long ago but time flies whether you want it to or not! In that time I’ve gone to Las Vegas, we’ve done some yard work around our home, and now we’re planning our next big trip to Disney World! But we’ve also…

I can’t believe it’s been 6 months since we declared war on our debt. On October 1st 2017 we had $26,237.59 in student debt. It felt like such a burden that we would be paying forever. If we had been paying the minimum payment it would take us 11 years to pay this off! With…
It’s been a couple months since I told you that my husband and I have declared war on debt. I wanted to give you a little update and let you know how we have been doing. I’m so excited to share with you that since October we have paid off $3395.58 of our debt! In…
It’s about to get real here today. It took me a little while to decide to share our actual debt numbers with you. First a little bit of our story; I took a 2 year diploma program in massage therapy, which I got student loans to fund. Luckily when I graduated I only had about…
