I Can Feel It In My Butt Pocket

I feel like we are finally going to get out of debt - this year. We have already cut our debt in half in the last few years and its really starting to snowball now. We still have a LOT to go but we are buckling down even with the unexpected large purchase of a new dryer and new faucet (and I have a bad feeling a new dishwasher is in the near future).

Last month I opened a separate checking account and every two weeks we have the grocery and gas money directly deposited. It has made things very tight for me but it's great overall. Even though I have less money to work with, I am in control of it. If we run out of food, it's my fault for not planning properly.
