Progress Report - Month 2
Had I posted this on the 8th, my mood would be very diff't. I'm in a pretty big funk lately. Things are NOT going good on the home front, I'm tired, I feel myself getting depressed. I started doing some "extra" shopping and don't even get me started on my eating and weight. It's been a long day and an even longer week so while i have time, I'll update where I am debtwise. Here is where I was 2/8/08:
Here is where I am as of today:
1. Old Navy Card. Last month I owed $432.86. Today it is Paid in FULL!
2. Toyota Car Loan. Last month I owed $1805.40. Today it is Paid in FULL!
3. William & Fudge. Lasst month $3,026.81. Now I owe $2876.81.
4. Capital 1 Gold (+ GA Taxes). Last month $4,873.29. Now I owe $4,727.29.
5. Direct Student Loan. Last month $7,690.45. Nw I owe $7,603.81
6. Target Visa (+ FederalTaxes). Last month I owed $9,205.81. Now I owe $8,940.81.
7. Sallie Mae. Last month $23,897.83. Now I owe $23,734.48.
Grand totals: Last month I was $50,723.33 in debt. Now I am $47,883.20 in debt.
In the last 30 days I have paid down $2840.13, resulting in me paying off 1 credit card and my car loan. Like I said earlier, I was way more pumped when the car was paid in full, but my mood is so blah now. I was driving today, heading to the mall for some moderate retail therapy, when it hit me, this is how it begins. I stop caring, it feels like too much work, it's so hard, I'm getting depressed and I tune out for a few months.
The fact that I told myself just come home and get the stuff updated and actually sat here doing just that for the last 1/2 hour means a lot. I'm sure things will be better in coming days and by then I'll be more in the mood to blog about money and debt.
