On an uplifting note, I paid my bills today. I know paying bills is not an uplifting event but today I did good. I have posted that we paid off our car in January. We paid off our credit card in March and am now working on an equity line. Today I was able to pay all of our bills plus pay our car insurance until August, pay our property tax that isnt due until June. I was also able to put an extra $280.00 on our equity line balance and I stuck some money away in the do not touch fund. We still have a little over $300 left for misc. for the next two weeks, Yay!
After my bible study last week I came home and actually figured out how much money we have, how much gos out in bills and how much we waste. What an eye opener that was, I was shocked when I saw how much money we waste a month. I figured we waste about $600 a month. I even gave us a $5oo food allowance for the month and came up with $600 in wasted money. I know we dont eat $500 in food so that is even more to the wasted count. I am convicted to put at least $300 away a month in a do not touch fund.
I am so thankful that God has provided everything that we need, and more.

I'm so excited for you! It's good for me to hear these things because it encourages me that yes, it IS possible to get out of debt. We'll make it someday!
