Day 3 and Getting Real

Naptime was a disaster today, so I'm just now getting a chance to post.

Today's blog is dedicated to my good friend and cousin, Jacolyn and her blog post last week about "getting real". You can read her blog here: http://lieck3.blogspot.com/. Jacolyn is the mother of two year old triplets. It doesn't get anymore real than that!

How often do we pretend that everything is fine when it really is not? Or how often do we do something we can't afford to do because we don't want to admit we can't afford it? I know I've been known to do it.

So, here's my list of debts. It's long. It's embarrassing. The only thing not listed is our house.

With your goals you have set, you can pay off some of the little ones and watch them fall of the list with relief! It will make u feel so much better already :-)
