Happy Birthday Nyesha

Yesterday was Nyesha's 6th Birthday.  Doesn't seem possible.  She is growing up!!!
Love my Grandkids!!!!!

Life is Hard Sometimes

Sometimes I just get overwhelmed with life.  We had decided to do this Debt Reduction/Debt Snowball of Dave Ramsey's.  Actually we have done really well.  BUT I hadn't realized how much we had been using our credit cards as a buffer.  Now that we aren't - well the end of the money comes way before the end of the pay period.  I am trying to stay positive.  It's a push sometimes.

 Last Sunday I knew I needed to write a tithing check.  We hadn't been to church the week before and we needed to tithe.  Well, writing that check was putting us out on a limb financially.  I don't like being out on a limb - it feels like it is so far to the ground and it scares me. :-)  BUT I did what I knew was the obedient thing to do - I wrote the check and am trusting God to get us through the week.  Hey, it increases me prayer life.

I know this will all work out.  We have renters for 2 of our 3 empty rentals.  Should get the rent for them soon.  That will definitely help.  I am seriously trying to stay laser focused on getting out of debt.  It will work!!!!
