As we head into the holiday shopping season, I don’t think I’ll read a better spending story than the one I read this morning on Kitchen Logic’s blog.
She stopped by the post office this morning, and reached an incredible milestone:
Just Like a Big Girl
While this should be no big deal, it is. Because this morning I paid off my credit card balance that I have been carrying for years. For a decade or more, even. I think. Maybe. I’ve always chosen not to think about it too much. This means I get to start fresh with my finances. I get to act like an adult who’s figured out some things in the past 10 years and behave accordingly. I get to make choices without that debt cloud hanging over me. I feel like I can breathe much easier today.
Lordy, it feels good!
Awesome.
I love hearing stories like this. Gives me hope. That’ll be me in a couple years.
Thank you Mr. The Deets! It feels incredible to have the behind me now. I celebrated this afternoon by not spending any money!
