I’m starting a job at Trader Joe’s tomorrow. I’m excited – it seems like a good place to work and they give full benefits to part time workers, woohoo!

I doubt we’ll pay off all our loans before we buy a house – I don’t know if I can wait that long! I would at least like to pay off the smaller, higher interest rate $3000 loan (now down to about $2000). That would be worth celebrating, even if the other loans still loom.
...is pretty long. I could easily cut enough for Locks of Love and still have lots left over. Still, I feel slightly chicken about it.
