HOW? Good question! I thought about answering real quick here, but that probably deserves its own post. Yes, you could read from the beginning. But I do think a recap is called for. A summary, of sorts. Good idea! Hmm… HOW? Good question! I thought about answering real quick here, but that probably deserves its own post. Yes, you could read from the beginning.

HOW?! Guess I'm going to have to go back to the beginning & start reading for the answers. I'm getting a sizable tax return and am going to pay off 3 debts - could pay off another, but want to keep some money in an emergency fund so I don't go down this path again. Have a vacation fund & Christmas fund set up to automatically withdraw from my paycheck, so hopefully I will end the year better than I started it. My goal is to have all non-mortgage debt paid off by the end of 2011 - will be sooner if I get off my butt & get a 2nd (PT) job for awhile... AWESOME – congrats! $19K in less than one year, though?

I always say it is much easier to edit a plan than it is to start one in the first place -- you're over half-way there! I just try not to think of the savings we could have if it weren't for that 2nd-mortgage payment... ;) Oh, yes, that is definitely okay.

But I kind of "stole" it from something. "Shhh", don't tell. Ah, yes, work. The crux of the matter, isn't it? I think we might have a mutual friend? Christy (Potter) Kass? Christy and I went to high school together. Oh, that our debts would be so small as this world. I wish I could take credit for the title! But I kind of “stole” it from something. “Shhh”, don’t tell.

Why, you must made my day! Make that my week. My month. Why, your comment might even keep me going for another year! *sigh* Donna,
