So we are finally getting a break for the first time since we started the last week of Nov, we ran our butts off. We made 1400 a week every week the last two weeks and 1600 this week.
We have paid the mortgage every week for the last 3 weeks we have 3 more weeks to pay to get 100% back on track. Next week we will pull 2200 and will send that cash to electric and water. Then I will use about 500 to buy a cheap horse trailer until we can save up about 11k to buy a really nice one.
We went to Bennigans today, first time in a while we spent 50 bucks on a meal and had no real worries. I got a bit worried once we got home, and checked and even paying the 800 to the mortgage this week we -still- had 800 bucks... that's such a weird feeling to have that much extra...
We wanted to pay the electric and all this week but it would be too hard to do so this week, as the electric is 300, the uverse is 300, and the water is 100 so we are going to hold off till next week, pay it all, then we will be on track again to pay everything every month within reasonable means.
We are planning to hire a 2 time a week house cleaner/petsitter, so we don't have the cats ruining the house, and redo the house's carpet because leaving them alone has had some issues.
I drank a Carribian Coloda and it was great, but I am drunk lol. Bill drank 1/2 my colada, a long isle tea, and a magarita. He was plastered lol, on the way back to the hotel (we walked) he tripped like 3 times when we had to clime down a bit of a stone wall to get to our hotel nearly crushed me. Staying at a hotel since the house is a mess and we can't stay long enough to get it back to good straights again. Only got tonight, and Sunday off.
Bill told me if I get a horse he wants one too... at this rate of pay our debt will be completely gone by next year. Our house will be paid off in 5 years...
