Happy New Year, May this year bless everyone families...
We are continuing to plow through our debt while trying to enjoy our days off together.
Husby has a new job he has applied for and so far they have asked him to come in for a typing test and with any luck an interview to follow!
We still only have a few days off together a month due to his current job, but we try to make the most of them when they do happen.
The weather has made hiking nearly impossible since it can't decide whether to snow, rain, be sunny or all of the three in one day...
We are currently working on paying off our chase card which has $7426.27 left on it.
But we are also trying to save money in our sinking funds, when the total gets to $1000.00 not counting our BEF I think I'm going to talk to husby about putting it into debt unless we have to use some of it then going back to funding our sinking funds until its back up to $1000 again. We'd really, really like to get that card paid off this year and it won't happen unless we buckle down more then we are now..
Well that's all for our end of the year comments and updates.

Total 2016 Debt Paid Off
We have paid off a total of $12,349.73 of Debt in 2016!!!
So Excited to have this much gone. I sure hope we can continue on this path.
I'm hoping the weather will cooperate and allow me to take some more hikes but so
far every day its nice enough I have to work.
We did have a minor issue here as our furnace motor died while it was 20 degrees outside and it took the furnace man about a week of coming over to figure out what was wrong with it.
Now it works like a charm, keeps us nice and toasty and when it's 20 degrees I don't fret!
I have been trying to pick up some overtime, at least once per pay period just for extra to savings and debt. Since we still aren't sure about DH job we are continuing to put money into savings.
It's off to work I go..

Paid down
So far this year we have paid off 2 debts totaling $6468.80 and have paid down our next debt by $327 so far this month. We have been saving money instead of putting most of it towards debt as we are not sure how DH new job will be.
We have tried to put some extra to debt and save at the same time, We figured if his job continues as good as it has been we will just put a large chunk down at the end of next summer.
It's been snowing and raining off and on here lately so I'm sure out gas bill will be more then usual, even my pets don't want to stay outside it's been so bad..
