Just Say No!

Say goodbye to the $9,000 envelope. We didn't get too attached because it was only on our fridge for 10 days. HELLO $10,000 envelope! It's wild to see that huge number hanging on our fridge in a short 8 months. We are on our way to pay off $10,000 of debt this year.  Read more about our envelope system to pay off debt here.

We are going to celebrate our son's 2nd birthday at the end of the month. One of the words he loves to say (like most 2 year olds) is "NO!" He learned it from us. We know that our success is due to saying "NO" to lots of things. Saying "NO" these last 8 months was hard at times, but in all actuality, the progress we've made in such a short time made all of those NOs worth it. I don't even know what we wanted to say yes to over the last 8 months, but I'm sure if we would have said "YES" instead, we would have nothing to show for it now.

Check out my budgeting tips and make your money mind. After you decide where you want your money to go, say "NO" to everything else. You will be amazed at what you can do with a little NO therapy!
