About Me

North Georgia Gal

Where to Begin...it is hard to believe that it has been 8 years since I started this Blog. You guys have always been here supporting me and cheering me on.

I recently took out a LOC against my house and paid off all of my credit card/loan debt. Everything on my credit report has been paid off. I now have one payment a month. But I am making 2 payments of $250, which is about $300 toward principle.

In about 3-6 months we are going to try to refinance the loan in just my name(My mom is a co-signer right now). UPDATE: I REFINANCED THE LOAN IN JUST MY NAME.

My budget is still in place for 2 months out, but I am constantly having to adjust it. But everything still gets covered.

I am still working my part time job early in the mornings and on weekends. I don't mind getting up early(4:00) but I hate going to bed so early. I sure enjoy that paycheck though. I am putting 35% of that check into their 401k. i will slowly raise that up to 50%. UPDATE: I HAVE GIVEN MY NOTICE FOR THE END OF SEPTEMBER. I JUST CAN'T DO 2 JOBS ANYMORE.

Long, Tough Night!

Well, yesterday was my "adopted" daughters birthday. She turned 16. There was a cabin rented and about 6 teenagers there. I was nominated as a chaperone! Didn't get much sleep, but I am back at work!

Spent $20 to get gas yesterday. DH took the car to winder and back. Was supposed to get an oil change, but didn't so I will have to get that done today.

That was nice of you to chaperone. How about reminding your Husband that the oil in car still needs changing,& ask him to take it? Nothing changes unless we speak up... Sorry to sound unkind, you don't seem willingto be strong with him. ? Just try telling him how you really feel...you will feel better in the end. You said your son said that you can get along w/out Husband? Is yr. son really unhappy? You seem to have a hard time just ...stand up for yrself....Hope you can.......

Ugh, you couldn't pay me to be around that many teenagers. You're a saint!
