No more NEW credit card debt

This morning it finally hit me that for the past few months I have not incurred any new credit card debt. My credit card balances are going down, and am using cash or my debit card for new purchases.

Yipppeee!!!!!! Go me!!!!!!

This blog is really helping to keep me sane where my finances are concerned.

I had to learn that lesson too. When you're not paying off this month's debt to keep the card clear, you can pay off last year's debt and get that monkey off your back.

Good going!

Thanks for all the words of encouragement.

@ Everything....it is not easy. I have been blogging for a over year. Notice I said that for the past few months. In the beginning of blogging things were still rough. I had my car accident, then the rental got towed. Those two incidents meant new credit card debt on top of the old one.
It takes some retraining. Plus I got a part-time job to help increase my income.
