I may out of the loop for a few days, a lot going on.....but I will be focused on things that are not spending inducers.....

While I am "away" I will be working on getting some things more organized. I have 4 bags of personal papers to sort thru and organize. I have a couple boxes I have to look thru, too. Hopefully I will get some condensing done.

My move to a new job within the company was announced today, and I was getting a lot of well wishes from my colleagues. It feels weird, but it is good to know I am moving on. I still wish it was not just a lateral move.

I am still feeling more in control of my personal spending, but I am tired of paying the usual bills.....I am going absolutely nowhere with the debt total right now, but I guess I have to just keep at it. Bit by bit by bit by bit.......................

Gotta go out right now....May be back later tonight........then AWAY....................

Hello littlesbigs,


I know it seems depressing when your debt total isn't moving much, but think of it this way: It isn't growing! You are "treading water" and you can get through this!


Have you looked at your debt balances? Are they moving down even a little, say a dollar at a time? If you are making those minimum payments each month, the debt balances *are* going down, if slowly. You are making progress even when you don't have extra snowball to toss at them!


Sincerely,
Lindsey Schocke
