July 3, 2008 at 11:45 am ET Even though our main goal is to become debt-free and improve our financial situation, there is another goal that is almost as important. That goal is to provide our son with what he needs to be successful with managing his finances as an adult. We do not want our son to follow in [...] ...

July 1, 2008 at 5:13 pm ET Lately, my husband and I have been having some pretty interesting conversations about homes and about the size of them. We both agree that the bigger home you have - the more likely you are to fill it with “stuff.” As we’ve come to realize, “stuff” isn’t all that important to us. [...] ...

June 30, 2008 at 12:46 am ET As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had promised our son that we would go see Wall-E when it came out in the theater. On Saturday, he was so excited he was almost bouncing off of the walls.
We were a little concerned about the possibility of the show selling out because [...] ... (more) Sunday, June 29, 2008 From Blogging Away Debt - view blog entries - visit this blog
June 29, 2008 at 9:59 am ET I spent some time yesterday catching up on my blog reading. I was pretty far behind. I follow over 120 blogs so I had some reading to do! Here are some articles that caught my eye to share with all of you.

June 27, 2008 at 12:11 am ET Those who are close to me sometimes tease me because I have a thing for mail. After the mailman goes by I’m usually the first one out there to see what he brought. You can imagine the mailman jokes I get
Mr. Mailman didn’t disappoint me today. I finally received the [...] ... (more) Thursday, June 26, 2008 We Are on a Spending Freeze (5 clicks)
From Blogging Away Debt - view blog entries - visit this blog
June 26, 2008 at 12:29 am ET Because things are tight financially right now, we are on a spending freeze. We are only spending money on necessities. We put this to the test last weekend when we returned something to Walmart. Even though we walked through the store, we walked out without buying a single thing.
It felt so weird [...] ... (more) Wednesday, June 25, 2008 Open Call for ING Savings Referral Links #2 (9 clicks)

June 25, 2008 at 12:45 am ET For quite a while now, we have been doing great with reducing our debt. There would be times where I’d look at our finances and see how much we can squeeze out to put towards our debt (or savings). Usually, there was some breathing room. That’s not the case right now.
I feel [...] ... (more) Saturday, June 21, 2008 Health Insurance Issue Partially Resolved (6 clicks)
From Blogging Away Debt - view blog entries - visit this blog
June 21, 2008 at 11:05 am ET I noticed online today that my health insurance provider received the manual check that I wrote to them. I sent it Wednesday - they cashed it Friday. Whew. We are now officially covered and I can begin the claims process to get paid for things we paid out-of-pocket. I’m not looking [...] ...

From Blogging Away Debt - view blog entries - visit this blog
June 20, 2008 at 12:57 am ET After everything that has been going on with our health insurance lately, guess what I got in the mail today? It was my next health insurance bill. That’s not very unusual for this time of the month. The $1,200 showing as due by the first of July was the unusual part. [...] ...

From Blogging Away Debt - view blog entries - visit this blog
June 19, 2008 at 12:46 am ET April and May were awesome months. June…not so awesome. A series of events has left me very grateful for our emergency fund. I’m not happy to have to pull from it, but it has to be done.
First of all, our health insurance company didn’t receive our bill payment from our bank. [...] ... (more) Tuesday, June 17, 2008 Do We Really Need All of Those Gadgets? (21 clicks)

June 17, 2008 at 1:01 am ET On my post about the slicer/dicer yesterday, MeganM left a comment:
I think 99% of gadget-type purchases can be eliminated. No one needs a slicer when a plain old knife will do just fine for sandwich meat.
I think MeganM is absolutely right. I’m mentally going through my kitchen right now and we have a cute [...] ... (more) Monday, June 16, 2008 A Walmart Cashier Saved Me From an Impulse Buy (31 clicks)
From Blogging Away Debt - view blog entries - visit this blog
June 16, 2008 at 12:35 am ET There is one area of my spending that I need to keep an eye on - impulse buying. For the most part, I’ve done well with keeping it bay. However, here are certain instances where money doesn’t matter. I had such an episode last weekend.
With my husband going to the doctors and [...] ... (more) Saturday, June 14, 2008 From Blogging Away Debt - view blog entries - visit this blog
June 14, 2008 at 2:55 am ET I haven’t been around here much this week. We have been working so hard on our new business to get it ready for launch by the end of this month.
It’s been tough. We’ve hit some roadblocks along the way but we managed to get by them. It did set us back time-wise [...] ... (more) Wednesday, June 11, 2008 Playing Catch-Up (6 clicks)

June 11, 2008 at 2:42 am ET I’ve been busy replying to emails and catching up on a few other blog technical issues. If you have emailed me, and are waiting for a reply, please try contacting me again. I know at least one email bounced back to me. If you sent me a link to check out something, [...] ...

June 10, 2008 at 12:31 am ET Without further ado, here’s how things panned out for May (please see this post for a FAQ).
Income for May was awesome. Our economic stimulus payment is in there and it gave us a welcome boost in income. Unfortunately, we didn’t use it like the government wanted us to use it. It went [...] ... (more) Sunday, June 8, 2008 From Blogging Away Debt - view blog entries - visit this blog
June 8, 2008 at 11:58 pm ET I haven’t felt much like blogging the last few days. A series of events left me a bit bummed and with some extra work on my hands.
First up, my husband is sick again. He called me from the doctors office, “They are saying our insurance is cancelled so I had to [...] ... (more) Thursday, June 5, 2008 A Few Contests to Share (2 clicks)

From Blogging Away Debt - view blog entries - visit this blog
June 4, 2008 at 11:05 pm ET May ended up being a great month for our net worth. We had some help, though, with our economic stimulus payment. All of that ($1,500) went straight towards our debt
I’ll probably be posting our May spending this weekend and we’ll review more things that enabled us to increase our net worth [...] ... (more) Tuesday, June 3, 2008 The 10 Year Anniversary of our Windfall (4 clicks)

June 3, 2008 at 12:06 am ET The Money Blog Network has an interesting writing project going on right now. They want to know what your finances were like 10 years ago. Ten years places us in 1998.
Uh, oh. I remember what happened that year. Although I don’t have the records to back this up, I’m pretty [...] ... (more) Sunday, June 1, 2008 From Blogging Away Debt - view blog entries - visit this blog

May 30, 2008 at 12:06 am ET After an absence, I have decided to bring back our monthly spending reports. I am still trying to find our January - March receipts so I can post those reports.

May 27, 2008 at 11:25 pm ET I wasn’t planning on paying more towards our debt this month. I was going to beef up our savings. Thank goodness I reviewed everything online or I might have missed a minimum payment due!
