Money money moneyyy

I don't have much to write about, except the fact that I have been feeling so anxious these last few days. Days are moving slowly & I feel so far away from our goal. Matt & I have been earnestly trying to pay off my debt but I can't seem to notice a diminution in the amount I owe. I keep beating myself up & hating myself for making the mistake of spending more than I made. I know it doesn't help. I am really understanding the consequences of my past credit card use because now Matt & I have to put "planning a wedding" on hold until we have met this goal. So to help us & motivate us a bit more (wedding is motivation #1) we decided that the first thing we'd do after paying off my debt would be to get a room & spend a weekend away from home, go out somewhere really nice, just the two of us. Relax & relieve ourselves of this. Debt is such a burden. I feel the weight of it daily. I have learned from those mistakes, & I am so thankful to have a man who knows how to save & is wise about his money. What a great husband he'll be.
