In a Nutshell

Work
Bill's job seems to be going very well despite the merger. He is challenged and satisfied and we're all grateful he simply has a job but to like it as well just makes life better.
My job on the home front is often exhausting but I'm still not wishing to be anywhere but here. The girls keep me on my toes; the house keeps me in motion and the animals keep me in check.

Money
While we still owe on the Saturn (0%), the house, and my education, we will have no credit card debt in a few weeks. Unbelievable!
