Batter Up!!!

We knocked another envelope out of the park this week. Our tax refund helped and we are happy to say that we've paid off $2,000 in debt this year we have $33,000 left to pay off. The card on the inside gave us a little spending money to go buy some spring clothes. It was nice to pick up a few things that we've been wanting/needing.


Our apartment lease is up in May and we had to make a decision to stay here or move somewhere cheaper to keep this debt-free game from going into extra innings. So we recently decided to turn in our 60 days notice and we're preparing to move out. We started looking for apartments but every place we called about is ready now...we're not. So we are learning to step out in faith. Yikes! I was using craigslist to soothe my fear of homelessness, but it was only making me more insecure. Chris and I decided that we aren't actually practicing faith...just fear and self-reliance. So craigslist is going to wait until we get closer to the move-out date and we are going to treat our fear of homelessness with a huge dose of prayer.

Envelope #3: $747.09 left to pay off
