I am a 25-year-old single, working mother of 2. I've got a lot resting on my shoulders, and I'm embarking on a journey to improve my finances and be able to enjoy life with my family without the constant stress of money problems. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired!

WOOOHOOOOOO!
I got a promotion! I got a raise! I'm so freaking excited and it still all feels very surreal. Anyway, I will now be making $5874 more annually! I'm very happy =D I was hoping to hit $30k salary, but they offered me $31250 and I gladly accepted lol Hopefully I can now buckle down and use this money to pay off my debt more quickly!

=D
I'm getting a promotion! I'm getting a promotion! I can't tell you how excited I am. It's not my dream job, but I'm going to get so much experience I'm freaking out! lol I get to manage 6 people directly! Of course, the people are all really dependable, so they don't need much.. but I get to do the schedules, goals, reviews, group reporting, and everything! Basically my boss and my boss's boss are "grooming me" to do great things =D And yes, I realize it benefits them because they're not having to pay for someone with a Bachelor's or the supervisory experience, but this will REALLY benefit me too! I'm freaking excited. I should be getting my offer in 3 days... but probably Monday.
And I'll be getting a raise!
And I'll be getting a raise!

Hmph...
Well I thought we were doing well. Until I remembered DH bought his new computer. *sigh* It's always something. I will not be given more than I can handle, right? I guess all I can do is look ahead and see what I can change about the situation and what else we can do to make this debt disappear. Anyways, I don't think I'm doing very well with eliminating my debt. It just seems to keep growing. I'm really upset at the moment.
On to the update:
ANB: $841.29
Dell: $1162.31
Citi: $4035.32
BoA: $4886.79
Toyota: $28399.17 (This is the same as last month, since the payment isn't even due until 8/6. I was actually ahead a little bit for the past couple of months, but this month I won't be able to keep ahead, so you'll see August's payment in August now.)
So the new total is $39324.88
Bleh! Somebody help me! lol
