Update since I haven't been around..

Been kinda crazy around here lately. I picked up more hours at the hair salon so that has kept me pretty busy PLUS I just started deep cleaning my house this week room by room. Got both of the kids bedrooms done and finished the big living room tonight. Wiping down walls and all wordwork with murphys oil soap, doing windows and washing curtains YUCK! But it has to be done. And it looks so much better. Now I have another living room, 2 bathrooms, kitchen and our bedroom left. Plan on doing it tomorrow all day hopefully get done!

Ok so I sold one of my web sites this week on Ebay earning over $100.00 YAYYY PLUS I was really busy at the hair salon so my income went from an average of $300.00 a week (after expenses of being self employed) to $400!!! YAYYY.

Chris is working more overtime now but they are talking about cutting back on that so pray that they don't LOL. I don't depend on the overtime in my budget but it sure does help LOL.

We applied with our local bank to refinance our mortgage. I was really expecting a flat NO WAY WHAT ARE YOU THINKING? But I got an email the other day that our online app had been updated so I nervously logged in and it stated it is in still in review and has not been approved yet but it now has a loan number and other information that lead me to believe there was a chance. So I was like Ok it wasn't a no that's a plus. Today I nervously called the bank because I was again afraid of what they would say. She told me that it was in review and that there is a chance they will do it and will let me know next week. SO PRAY HARD FOR THAT!! IF we can get that it will cut our mortgage payment almost in half because of our stupid sub prime mortgage we have now :(

So theres the update. We need lots of prayers this coming week as you can tell!

Congratulations!!

That is really good news that you are getting more hours at the Hair Salon and that you've sold one of your web sites on Ebay.

I'm praying that you have many more successes.

God Bless you and your children!

Way to go on ebay!

I hope you get nothing but good news from the bank. Cutting your mortage payment in half is a huge thing!

Its great to read other people are setting the goal to be debt free. it is a motivation for mself to keep at it and send money to debt and not buy more toys that do nothing for anyone. I believe this country need a wake up and start emilinationg debt or we will be on the road for major failure!
