I'm so pleased I can finally post and report a success!!!!!!!

My budget cuts are helping, and some of the cash flow problems are successfully resolving for me. Yippee!!!! I was able to make an extra $1,000 debt payment this month! $500 each to my two VISA's. So happy!!! I also paid $71 to a store CC that paid it off in full, not much, I know but one more step in the right direction.

Top it all off, I got a small midyear bonus at work, netting $375, will buy a gas grill (been wanting one for 2 years!) for cooking outside and will snowflake the rest.

This makes me feel like there's been a real financial turnaround. Let's hope it continues.

Split cause they're both the same rate.

I actually LOATHE hot dogs, but love to cook other stuff on a grill and here, one can grill year round.

Downside, got a HUGE electric bill yesterday, it's been hot and that pool filter runs 10 hours/day now. But I do have it (almost totally) budgeted for. Just makes me sick how much energy costs.

Blech!!

That is so great.


A grill will also help you save some $$ on gas/electricity for cooking.
