Well with being out of town and being busy I haven't really been checking in here as much as I was a few months ago - but things are looking up. I am in graduate school and am only working part time but have managed to pay down my debt to right at $5000 and I haven't put anything on a credit card in six months! I have even been paying all of my tuition and books in full so that is nice. I know I will be able to get it all paid off once I graduate next summer and am able to work full time and not pay tuition!
But my best news is that I got a letter from my cc company yesterday stating that b/c I've been making such good payments they are lowering my interest rate and raising my limit. Yeah! (not so much for the limit but for the interest rate) - plus I am hoping that it will help out my credit rating. Anyway, that made my day and I thought I would pass it on. I hope everyone is doing well and having a good summer.

That's fabulous! Go, you! It will feel so great to graduate with *less* debt than you started with, and ready to start building wealth.
Congrats,
Heather
Good for you. Sounds like you are on the right track.

Great! How really nice to get the lowered interest rate. I'm actually pleasantly surprised that a credit card company could notice in a good way.
Good for you.

That's wonderful! Sounds like you're going to knock the rest of the debt off in no time!
Congratulations!
