After giving it much thought over the weekend to my options, I have decided to tackle it head on starting right now.

Good for you for making a plan. A plan has always made me feel better. It is great motivation to make small goals along the way as well and achieve them. A free weekend is a great start!

Have you considered the building a baby emergency fund of $1000 so that if a bump in your journey should arise you will have the cash to fall back on and not have to charge? It really is a terrible feeling when you make progress to have to back slide when something beyond your control happens and a credit card becomes necessary.

Good luck in your journey!
