Dh and I are trying really hard to keep our budget on track. Every time it feels like we will soon be in the clear, we get sucked right back into some credit card debt (last time it was the nearly 2k vet bill when Elliot got sick).
If all goes as planned and no major emergencies come up, we are looking at being rid of all debt outside student loans in January. I am very cautiously optimistic, as this will allow us to beef our savings back up for a kiddo if/when I get pregnant, as well as free up the necessary funds for daycare.
Any nestie vibes that no major emergencies slap us back down (in the immediate future, anyway) are really appreciated...if a car broke down right now or something we'd be nearly at square one.
Re: May I have some good vibes?
UGH- I know exactly how you feel and unfortunately, we have an ongoing money drain that doesn't look to be ending soon that is making us tread water. Last year we were hoping to get out of debt by January, now we are just trying not to make any more.
Good vibes headed your way! I love seeing other people make it, it gives me hope!

I really hope that the next few months go smoothly for you guys! It is such a great feeling when you get something paid off...no matter how big or small it is!
Good luck!
Good luck!
I used to worry about paying off CCs and feel lots of pressure for it. Now, I'm just convinced that I will never have them paid off. Stuff always comes up. This is life.
