So here is where I stand today and what I have decided to do.


I just sold a few things and had some extra saved up money come in and I put it all on the CC bringing my balance to $3700. I have taken them all out of my wallet and put them away. We are taking Dad out for Fathers day and normally I would just throw it on the CC and pay for it later. I have
