WE DID IT!
So, I have to tell you about a truly invigorating moment that my husband and I shared today.
Now - Does it really matter that it was for Macy's? Or that it only had a balance of $87.oo left on it? YES, IT DOES. Because, you see, until recently I never really GOT it. I mean, credit cards helped me get some things that I really wanted (notice - I said wanted - not needed. There is a BIG difference there.) And in my desires and WANTS, came a butt load (pardon the language) of bills, interest, and problems.
But, we have started. My husband and I have a goal. To be financially healthy. And it is something that we have really been putting alot of energy and focus into recently. This one little credit card was the start of it . . . and now, I believe that WE CAN DO IT!!! YIPPPIEEEEEE!!!
So, today I applaud our accomplishments and I look forward to the financial future for us. It's going to be a great one! (And thanks for letting me share this with you - it's pretty special to me!)
Oh, and check this link out. While I was searching for images of cutting credit cards, I found this really cool project that you can make with those nasty old cards.
It's amazing that something so BAD can make something so COOL! I guess everything is beautiful, in one way or another, huh? I don't think I'll keep my card pieces in the house - I want them GONE. So in case you are joining me in a financially healthy future, but just can't part with your card pieces, maybe this project will be right for you! Happy Debtfree Life for us all!

ReplyDeleteCongrats! You should be so proud of yourself! My hubby and I paid off ALL our cards last year. We use cash or we don't buy it now. It has made a HUGE difference in our spending!!!!
