I'm a middle-aged woman determined to get out of debt. My husband and I are going through Financial Peace University (again!) through our church. As Dave Ramsey says, this isn't a microwave, it's a slow cooker. Come with me on my journey!

2 years & 70 Days and a huge PRAISE!
Tom found out yesterday that he goes back to 40 hours a week next Friday, April 2nd. He'll get to work this Friday on the cleaning crew. He will also have the chance to work some Saturdays doing cleaning to get overtime. Possibly the best thing is that if/when he has surgery, he'll get paid for 40 hours a week instead of just 32. That will be a huge blessing. We are praising God!

2 Years & Days 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, & 69 and LAME!
I know! I've gone almost a week without posting! I'm sorry! Here are some updates:
We got our tax refund deposited last Friday. We were able to pay our dentist bill, our Napa bill, our property taxes, get caught up on our phone bills, gas bill, and electric bill, and pay Serenity back (both for the remainder of the car repair money she had loaned us and for Tasha's prom dress which they bought when Tasha was visiting her last week). It is a huge relief to be caught up on all of our bills and I am praying that we can stay caught up.
In other news, I had an interview scheduled for Monday night at 6:00 p.m. This is a person that I knew owed another provider money, but I figured everyone deserves a second chance. I had prayed about it and asked for God's will to be made clear to me, as well as for wisdom and discernment about whether to take the child or not. I called at 5:00 to confirm the appointment and was told they would be here. 6:00 came and went and they never showed. LOL. Guess that made God's will pretty clear, right? I was annoyed, but also relieved. I figure that God helped me dodge a bullet!
