So the first month I read Twilight. The second month I read New Moon. Here it is the 3rd month and I really don’t know if I have the attention span to pull this off. I did read a book this month but it was only about 130 pages so I feel like it doesn’t really count. I’m going to try to take a shot by reading Eclipse but it’s 620 pages and I have a bit over a week left. Usually Stefs book a run right through but I have too many distractions lately to just sit down and read. Fingers crossed

How I did it: From the web was easy, figuring out how to do it on my phone was a bit challenging or maybe I'm just impatient and went too fast. It's all good now.I prefer the text options since you can do it on the go... Read how I did it…
How I did it: It's really a one step at a time process. I always held on a little because I never wanted to completely let go. I figured once I let go, that was it. There was no going back. It's really about being ready for that moment. You need to purge, get rid of it all. Don't hold on, literally let go. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I actually did the text version, so I got a response from some complete stranger (secret 4 secret). There's a myspace blog by postsecret. You post your number and you get a text message. I received a response 6 minutes after posting. Read how I did it…

If all goes well I hope to be debt free by the end of the year. I’ve been putting away an extra $100/month towards my car payment to try to get it paid off this year. I’ve also recently paid of my BoA credit card, and my Discover Card will be paid off next month… yea me! Two down one to go.
I gave him a 2nd, 3rd, and 4th chance. It just never really worked. I blamed myself once, and made excuses for his behavior the other times…. but the truth is people aren’t who they tell you they are, they are who they have always been. Wasted time with the wrong person is just that, wasted time.
