I realize that most of you think I'm silly for being excited to repay my debt. I cannot wait to get paid again so I can pay down more things. I have done very good at sticking to my plan, although I really only started less than a month ago. It's funny how much you can accomplish when you set your mind to it. I have to admit, I cheated a little, I took my kids to Applebees the other day. It wasn't part of my budget, and now I feel guilty about indulging. It was kind of a spur of the moment ordeal since I barely get a chance to do fun things with my kids. I nicknamed my son Dave (from Dave Ramsey) that day because he was the most HORRIBLE child in Applebees. He threw food at people sitting behind us and screamed the entire lunch. He was nicknamed Dave because I should have known better than to spend that extra money. He was teaching me a lesson. To be fair, it was money that I made from selling my books, and I only spent $15 taking me and my 2 kids out to eat. But that $15 could have gone into savings.
I'm only human, right?
The last 3 days have flown by. I hope that is a glance of how my 2 month wait will be. When I think of the fact I have 63 days or so left until I get my acceptance letter, it seems unbearable. I wonder how I ever waited in my pregnancies? Waiting is just not my thing!
I start school again in 11 days! I am pretty excited about that. Maybe that will occupy my time and make the wait fly by. Until then, I will do my best to make more Budget type items to sell on Etsy.
We are getting slammed with admissions here at work, so this post has to be short and sweet.
Until next time!
