How I did it: First of all, I got into debt because I unwisely loaned money to someone I trusted. It turned out that I was scammed.I was able to borrow money against my house to pay off a high interest loan, but credit card debts kept mounting. I finally confessed what was going on to my financial planner, who was objective and worked with me to pay off all of the debt with money I had invested earlier. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I took stock of the goals I had written previously and decided which ones to concentrate on. I wrote entries spelling out how I planned to complete them. I wrote some more short term goals that were doable. I focused on accomplishment, completion and movement in the right direction. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I went to meetings, calculated my state retirement payments if I retire in 2009, next year, or in two years. I also talked to some trusted friends with financial experience, and listened to my sons' concerns. Mostly, I went with what my intuition and my heart told me. Read how I did it…

3. Laughing with my 7th graders this afternoon.
4. Napping in the recliner after work.
5. Solving the health care crisis with Tom.
1. Tired and dragging today, but I made it through. Fortunately I was at the local school, so no commute time!
2. No meetings.
3. Good class with lots of sharing.
4. Went to listen to live music after class – it rocked!
5. Watching Grey’s Anatomy tonight.
1. Made it successfully through the day with less than optimal amount of sleep. Will get more tonight!
2. Two good parent meetings – one with an aunt, as the mother is incarcerated. Tough for her young son…
3. Time to relax while getting a haircut and color.
4. Inexpensive but good dinner with Kevin. My friend forgot, and then showed up with another friend. Such is life – no problem!
5. Finished most of my homework for tomorrow and had time for a quick call with Tom. He’s hard at work on his class, too.
