Debt Free and Loving it!!! (Law of Attraction)

To my excitement, I received a check today for the exact amount I needed to pay off every piece of debt we have up to our house payment on Saturday. I could barely stand when I knew I was that close to financial freedom! I wondered to myself, what would any normal person due when receiving a check for a little over a hundred thousand dollars? Start a small business? Buy a car? Well I already knew exactly what I was going to do with it! I was going to free myself from debt slavery. I sat at my computer after I rushed to the bank to deposit the check. It still had the little word pending under it holding my hostage to a few more days of anxiousness! I tried my hardest to find things to occupy my time while waiting for the check to clear. 1 day went by, still pending, then 2... and then 3!!! It was gone!!! I was so close!!! Then I did it! I clicked on bill pay and how good did it feel to enter all those amounts in one lump sum. First my car, then Dustin's Truck, then our pool, then all our credit cards, I felt like such a rebel, I paid them in a different order than what Dave said to! But I was doing it! Last, I made a payment of 300.00 for the last dinky little credit card... and found I had 1 dollar left! It feels so good! I can now sleep at night knowing that if I want to go out to breakfast in the morning I won't have to squeeze into such a tight budget. Don't get me wrong, we are still on a budget and have to resist the slightest urge of "Charging it" we have, but truthfully, without debt we feel FREE! Thank you so much for making us FREE!

Good Start!

I think this is just what I needed. A good ol' blog to start off this week that I was not sure how was going to start. It is now 3 mins to seven and my first kid has yet to arrive. (He is due here at 6:30) This is giving me the slightest bit of hope that maybe, just possibly, he won't be coming today, but we will have to see. I have been in such a slump lately which I am sure is due to my hormones going crazy since I have recently found out I am pregnant, or Prego' as seems to be the most popular thing people think is hilarious to call us people. I forgot how wierd I feel when I am pregnant and I can't remember if it gets better or worse. I went through a lot of different emotions with Landice and I am not sure if these were the worst of them or not. Really though, except for the whole, "This is not the right time" feeling, all the other wierdo feelings are there. Like the whole, hating my environment. Not puking but feeling like I will if I see or smell a certain food. I am just waiting for the nesting period because my house could use a good scrubbing. Hmm... okay that is a little blog... It should do for now. This should be much better than the 50 2 page filled journals I have lieing all over in random areas... :)
