...in that I refinanced my home equity loan and consolidated all of my debt. In addition, I closed out my two high-interest cards (why they were high-interest is beyond me; I have stellar credit, and I kept calling and harassing them to lower my rates).
Funny, my credit union had no problem issuing me a single-digit-interest-rate Visa card….
Plus, I’ve controlled myself so far and not used the new card yet.
Let’s see if I can keep it up. It sure is nice not having those monster-sized payments every month.

...of the company health center’s winter lifestyle change program. I had signed up in January to help give me incentive with my weight loss. To date, I have lost 18lbs, 4” from my waist and 3” from my hips. I can also jog (slowly) for 3 miles without stopping. I am sleeping better, and have more energy to get up and down off the floor with my little daughter. I can also wear my wedding ring again!
I hope I’ll be able to keep the motivation up and continue with my healthy plan.
Anyway, thanks for listening, everyone! It’s nice to know that there are many sympathetic people out there rooting for me.
