The key is to not establish a negative pattern. I kinda fell off the wagon for some 'good' reasons and more bad reasons. It became a slippery slope and I admit that I fell down. I trust you don't make my mistake and I'm not pleased to be regaining my stride!

I kinda fell off the wagon for some ‘good’ reasons and more bad reasons. It became a slippery slope and I admit that I fell down. I trust you don’t make my mistake and I’m not pleased to be regaining my stride!

All of these were must fix vs. waiting to fix. We had to put the fridge on the CC, but saved $250 via Sears scratch and dent! We are getting back on the horse, but getting the efund back up to $1000+ and then resuming. We had a rough month to include the following:
