abolish credit card debts
Holy debts. 6 months ago

Made myself log into my credit card account to see I was just under $100 away from maxing out. And my credit card limit isn’t exactly small. And that’s just one credit card – I’m also paying off store credit for some whitegoods we got when we set up our house (though, thankfully, that’s interest-free until 2012).

The debt is way out of hand, though I do know how it got that way (no, not spending sprees a la “Confessions of a Shopaholic”, but a holiday I couldn’t get a refund on, being jobless for a while and boarding my cat for 9 weeks).

How am I going to tackle it? That’s the important question. And right now, I’m not so sure.
