The DNA test results came back and they can now stop calling me the “alleged” father and just refer to me as the father. Supposed to be a hearing at the end of this month. I am praying ( if you want to call it that ) for closure to this nightmare.

How I did it: So, since I decided to stay off IM I have: Finished the book I was reading, Read another, started a third, got all four laptops that were on my workbench taken care of. Cleared up some work tickets. Did all the dishes. Did all the laundry and put it away. Have started work on the new file server, cleaned up the bedroom/office ... Read how I did it…
How I did it: My minimum payment was some ridiculously low amount, but I had to have the sucker paid off by a certain date in order to avoid interest. I jacked the payment as high as I could go and made that payment religiously. I had it auto withdraw from my account as well. Now, it is paid off and I have an extra $300.00 a month to go toward other things Read how I did it…
How I did it: The truth is, I didn't actually pay it off. Nor will I. I have simply shifted things so that I can build my credit. Instead of making a payment to this card and buying groceries, instead I use the card to buy groceries and then use that money to pay the card. I simply make sure that I am paying more each month than I am actually using.

I can’t wait, but am so scared at the same time.
