November Debt Update

*As of today we have $6,883.12 of credit card debt*

We paid $1,590 towards credit card debt this month.  Yippee!!  Hoping to keep the trend going until it's all paid off.  Lucky for us we are both paid biweekly, which mean we have an extra paycheck in January.  This will allow us to pay for our upcoming Whistler trip without slowing down our debt snowball.  It hasn't been easy to keep our debt in check this month as we had a black tie wedding to go to that was not in the same city we live in.  But we still managed to make our debt payment and I'm a happy camper.  Our next challenge will be our cars....more to come on that in the near future.

The Cable Dilemma

I feel like I have to admit this to the world....we still have cable.  I KNOW we need to get rid of it so we can save approximately $60-70 a month.  But it's more than just the money.  I feel like a slug because we have cable.  I like watching certain shows, and it does help me to relax after a stressful day at work, but when I need to be productive (like right now on a Saturday that I'm actually not working) I just veg out on the couch with my laptop and put the TV on in the background...and then 3 hours later I have accomplished about a 1/4 of what I've wanted to.  I think we will be getting rid of it soon....it's just a slow process in our household.  Any advice from people who took the plunge?  For those of you familiar with Dave Ramsay, not only can I not wait for the day where my husband and I yell "we're debt free"...but I also can't wait for the day we yell...

"WE'RE CABLE FREE!!!"
