For me, I just paid off one of my student loans! Granted, I still have the other loan that will take me another 1.5-2 years to pay off but helz yeah for getting one out of the way!

Happy Anniversary to you and have a fabulous time in Baltimore!
Congrats, NQ! I am so jealous.
Have a great time, Tiana!
We paid off our 2011 car in full - got the title this week! It feels good to have that extra money in our account each month (and not have to pay extra in interest).
Why, of course it does! Congrats!
I can't wait to pay off my final loan and start saving that money each month but for now I'm just going to apply the "saved" money to my other loan. I'm pretty much sending in somewhere between quadruple and quintuple payment each month and it's still going to take me over a year and a half to pay off.
We have been paying triple on my student loans for the past year to try and bring them down. I still have probably close to 5 years left (assuming we keep paying all this extra toward principle). I wish I could AW that my SL amount reflects a ginornmous paycheck...but alas, it does not.
Congrats!!
wow - congrats! that's so awesome! good for you.
good luck, keep us posted.
i'm going to go with.....hell yeah it does! congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well done everyone!

Congrats babe!
My AW is I finally finished C25k and am now running about 3 miles three times a week. I am also down 9 lbs, about halfway to goal!

Congratulations babe and everyone else!
These are are great things! I ran a 15K race on Saturday morning and came in 3rd in my age group. I also improved my time from last year.
Lots of good stuff today, congrats everyone!
I am down about 7 lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight and feeling really good about how my clothes are fitting me for the first time in quite a while.
Also, after about three years of whining about my job, I finally applied for a position that would be perfect for me, and would cut my commute in half. No idea if they'll call, but just trying for it feels good.
Wow- lots of exciting news and accomplishments! Congrats all around!
I am currently down the shore for my second consecutive week- I haven't taken two weeks off since my wedding/honeymoon and it feels SO GOOD to really be relaxing...though when I get my $0 paycheck next week reflecting being off an entire pay period it's gonna hurt...oh well, I needed the time off to relax and rejuvenate before baby #2 gets here in a few weeks!
I got nothing.
All you skinny minnies... how did you do it? I need MAJOR inspiration!
Congrats to all with the good AW's!!
We paid off our car, loans, credit cards, refinanced our mortgage and we're going to Ireland in March!!
That must be such a relief. We're in the process of trying to refinance right now. Hopefully all will go well, it will save us so much every month in interest. Will help us with some of the other things you listed. :-)
