Well, we're still in debt but at least hubby has a job now so the bleeding can can at least be patched a bit. Our current debt is over $115K, not including our mortgages and cars.
I should have went to the bank or at least made an extra payment on something and then that would have forced me to deposit the money. Instead, I kept it in my wallet and have 20 bucks left. DOH! But, in my defense, it did go to good use. Most of it went to buying pumpkins at Usuegi Farms, then out to dinner at Super Taqueria. Another $20 went to the oldest for the movies and dinner (a little surprize!), which I don't usually do. Ok, I never do. So it was nice splurging for a change. And in return? We won the football pool again on Monday night. Not just one quarter this time, but two. Hello $250 smackers! Yay me!
Ok, so yeah, we're trying to get out of debt. So what am I doing spending an extra $10 a week playing in a football pool? WINNING! That's what I'm doing. My mom just dropped off $125.00 in cash from the pool we won 2 weeks ago. $125 just sitting in my wallet. I know I should go to the bank and deposit it and pay bills with it. Grrrrrr.

Just how did we manage to get ourselves into over $115,000 in debt? It seems difficult doesn't it. And that doesn't even count our mortgages (yes, plural) or our car payments (again plural). I'm hoping to intend to use this blog to document our journey in getting out of debt and getting two kids in college and a substantial college fund for the third.
