Debt Update – 6 Months into Repayment

Well hello there — Fancy meeting you here, on my Debt Update page.

What have I been up to? Well, as you might have noticed, my last Debt progress report was quite some time ago.

Yup. The ball was essentially dropped. Several of them, actually.

While I’ve been floundering around in non-blogging land, the rest of the world has been turning.

Time has passed me by while I’ve been Pinning, Tweeting, Facebooking (is that a verb?), and doing other less-than-strategic activities in order to avoid actual writing.

But then a sweet and wonderful person did something to shake me out of my blogging coma —

She asked me for an update.

It was as simple as that.

I’m documenting my financial journey so that others might learn from it —

• How to pay off debt
• What’s working, what isn’t
• How to make extra money to pay off bills
• And how to make everyday life a little more enjoyable

And – shocker of all shockers – someone actually wants to read it. (Isn’t that the point??) So why in the world I’m not openly providing this information is entirely beyond my realm of knowledge.

Talk about being one’s own worst enemy — silly, rabbit.

Dealing with Credit Card Debt

Here we go — Round Two of this Credit Card Debt Repayment Journey —

Last month I started documenting my progress toward paying off the credit card debt we’ve accumulated over the past couple of years.

The point was to understand exactly where our debt is, and gain structure around what we can pay off each month.

While it hasn’t been an exact science, at least it has been a starting point. And then there’s the whole accountability thing.

If I’m putting this all out there for the world to see (albeit anonymously), at least this makes it a bit more real.

So here is our current progress, building off of what was documented previously.
