A First For Sure


Do you know what feels really good?

Paying off my first student loan. 

I know it's just a drop in the bucket, but having that extra $129.29 a month to put towards the next loan will only snowball that payment as well. Hubby and I just started a new budget this month. He now pays for everything that requires us to sustain life. And besides my tithing each month, every penny I make now goes towards paying off my student loans. According to mint.com, we will be done with them completely in February of 2015. A sobering number, but certainly better than the year 2034 estimate by my bank. I've come to passionately hate interest!

One down. Seven to go. Too bad the remaining seven total more money than I'll make in years!
