Paid Extra...

We paid an extra $70.00 to our next card we are paying off, and although we paid some off we spent money on clothing and fitbits. I have placed a moratorium on spending from either of us.. I hope we can follow it.


School starts in a week and one day, not sure if I can't wait or I'm sad.. My last child is in 7th grade.


Hubby will be taking a class or two this semester. I'll plug away at debt although it looks like I need to make a dream board since I told hubby I wanted to go to Sorrento Italy..


and It's only a dream unless you have a plan so time for me to plan to make this dream come true..

Weather Changes and updates

Today is our last day of nice weather for about a week and boy do we need it badly, it's fires everywhere and hopefully this will help put them all out.


On another front, I'm still waiting for one or two issues to be resolved from my job and hope to have this completed by the end of next week. Although I doubt it will be that soon I can hope!


We are plugging away at our bucket list and moving dates, at this point we feel June or July 2016 would be a best option for us as traveling in the winter is just not what we are looking forward to with children and animals.


I get paid today so we have bills to pay but I won't be doing that until tomorrow since it's my day off.


Tomorrow is also grocery day, dentist day for DS-Y, meal planning for the next week and grocery shopping for the next week, oh and house work that is to be done that day.


At least I get to sleep in to 6am!!

Paid Another Off

Today DH and I paid another card off leaving only 3 left to go. We pondered whether we would wait until the next statement came in but decided to just go for it. We still have a moderate amount left in savings and our Sinking Funds are all fully funded. We still have problems with going over budget on food but have been working on it diligently the past month. We have no further current plans to pay anything else completely off at this time as we have moving plans in the next 3 months to 8 months.

Paid one off

Today DH and I paid off one Debt completely, now to just wait for it to post. We are keeping a majority of the money we got in our savings for future projects...

Extra Money and Extra Stuff

Today I got a large check from my work place for a long issue we have been fighting over. DH and I decided to just pay off 3 bills and place the rest in savings for now. We will decide in the near future if we want to pay anything else off or just leave it in savings for now. I know we will have a large tax debt this year so I've also been trying to work some over time to save for this also. We have approx. $10,000 in savings for this already and since we have no idea how much its going to end up costing us we will just have to wait and see.


In other news, school doesn't start here until September 8th, why so late I'm not sure, but we have already finished our school shopping and only need about 4 more school supply items.


It's been very, very warm and nice here the entire spring and summer and looks like it will be continuing until the early fall...


That's pretty much all that has been happening here for now :-)
