Now that I have a job... 19 months ago

I can get back to working on this goal again. I was doing really well and had almost everything paid off before I lost my job, now I’m back in a huge hole of debt again. I hope once I get a few paychecks I can get myself back on track, but it’s going to be really hard.



One more paid! 22 months ago

I just paid off the balance of my Chase card, which was $1900!



My refinance went through 22 months ago

I mailed back the final paperwork today, so that means I will have combined 4 of my debts in total down to 2! Yay for lower rates and better payments.



Two will be paid off soon 23 months ago

I’m doing a refinance on my car that will allow me to pay off two of my credit cards and my bank overdraft account. I know it’s a crappy way to do it, but my interest rate will be way lower and the payments are a lot less so I can pay everything sooner.



I have to use the card again... 2 years ago

I’ve been good for about the last month not using my card, but the balances are still overwhelming. My cat is out of her prescription food though and I can’t wait to get it until I get paid on Friday so there will be another charge on there now. I swear I’m in a hole with these stupid cards that I’m never going to get out of :(



I haven't really paid anything extra... 2 years ago

but, I did not use my credit cards at all in the last two weeks and I get paid tomorrow! That’s a big improvement over my last pay period where I totally ran out of money and had to use it for gas and groceries.



I'm getting in such a bad hole again 2 years ago

Living without any roommates has totally screwed me. I have two of my three cards totally maxed out again after I had been working so hard to pay them off. I’m really scared right now, because I don’t know how I’m going to keep up on everything.



I really failed at this... 2 years ago

I’ve racked up so much more credit card debt lately. I lost both of my roommates and my rent has gone up super high and of course all the bills too. I have my boyfriend living with me and helping out, but it’s still a huge strain on me at the moment. Needless to say, there have been quite a few times I’ve had to stick groceries or gas or something like that on my card. Instead of paying it off, I’m just increasing all of my balances :(



So far so good... 2 years ago

I haven’t paid anything off recently but I have my Kohl’s card down to be able to pay it off in September, and I haven’t been using my other cards. Hopefully by this time next year I won’t have to worry about this anymore.



I just had to use the cards again :( 2 years ago

My cat got sick and I had to take her to the vet and pay for medicine and prescription food for her. I was doing so well at not using any of my cards, just paying them. I guess it could be worse though since I still have all but one department store card paid off and the other two are slowly going down.
