rejuvenated

February 24th, 2008 at 08:52 pm

Just got back from Florida. I thoroughly enjoyed the relaxation of being with family and away from stress (however, I did check work e-mail from time to time, but I did not allow it to overwhelm me). I spent more than I would have liked, I feel all right about it. I took my grandparents and mother out for dinner, bought souvenirs for my husband, stepdaughters, people at work and some groceries for the few days we were there.

We got our tax return and I will be getting paid for the winter sport I coached. This is where the real work begins. First, I want to put $1000 into an emergency fund. When that's finished, I will put whatever is leftover towards paying off my two credit cards. I'm not sure after that whether I want to pay off a personal loan with a higher interest rate or if I want to work on paying off the car (which I would rather own free and clear as soon as possible. Cars are the WORST investment EVER! All they do is depreciate!)

My husband begins his new position March 10th, so I'm looking forward to a large chunk of money to just HURL at the debt.

OH! And I need to need to need to call the teacher loan forgiveness program this week. I'm hoping that my six years of teaching in either title I schools/special education are good enough to wipe off $17,500 of my student loan debt. Here's to hoping!
