First student loan to pay off

Credit card payments.

I talked to my credit card company this weekend. Not fun but enlightening all the same.  I figure hey I need to get them to stop calling for awhile at any rate. So we will see if they do. The girl said they  would. lol.. But one needs to do this from time to time when owing people money and have to make arrangements to work toward paying off that debt. Sometimes its just not as easy as it seems when you are limited in what you can send. 

But looking out into the future if I pay off this card, the car that will free up some money for student loan repayment. But we may have to purchase another car in the future as well. So there is always that possibility that payment will linger in the debt pool for a few years yet. We do have to get back and forth to work still. 

I"m still waiting to hear about my repayment options and if I was approved for anything. I hate waiting. 

Also went out on Sat and spent a little too much. :( Not that it was much at all but when one has debt to pay it was too much. I did have fun but really it was not a smart thing to do. That money could of went someplace else on the budget page. Lesson learned and we will be more careful in the future. I might have to stash away a little here and there in an envelope for special dinners and what not. The guilt is just too much when one does not plan for things like this. 

Also caught up on 2 bills. That does fill good. :)  

I picked up extra time at work this next week too. :) It does not happen often. As much as I hate going in on my day off I am. I will appreciate it when the pay comes in the mail. 

The end of the month is looking a little better. A few more dollars to stash away for extra down on bills. Hope I can keep this up for the rest of the year. 

Ebay has been a bit slow. But this is clearly something I will have to do daily and list stuff daily to keep up with it. So yes I think it will be a summer time thing when I"m not working. 

I"m also researching how to sell my art more too. I went to school I better put something I learned to work. I"m not great but there is a lot of people making money off their art that is not great either. I want in on that. 

Guess the week has been more productive than I thought. Here is to the next week. Lets see what we can accomplish toward the debt.
