Today was a good financial day.
1. It's payday!
2. I got my tax refund!!
3. I also got my yearbook stipend!
I haven't seen my balance that high in my checking account in quite a while...so of course I immediately moved most of it into my credit card debt! I will update my tool bars after the interest for the month is added, but it will definitely put a dent in my debt, which feels really good. In the past I've usually splurged on something when I get my taxes back (My Wii or a Disneyland pass have been two examples). But I am actually really satisfied in knowing that I am paying down my debt faster.
Paying off my debt feels like the slowest process in the world! I know it hasn't been that long, but it really is amazing how quickly I can rack it up and how long it takes to pay it off. But, I am just going to keep on keeping on and get that debt paid off!
Isn't it such a gift when doing the right thing is intrinsically gratifying!? Way to shape your desires, Jess. Congrats!
