Today is a day of great accomplishment!

About 2 years ago I found myself in a heap of financial trouble. I was at the point of despair and didn't know where to look for help and was pretty certain there was no way to ever get out of the pit I was in. Two very loving people stepped up to the plate and talked straight to me...laying out the consequences for continuing along the path I was on and offering a life preserver for me to grab if I chose. I chose and it's made all the difference! They helped me secure a loan that would consolidate all my credit card/car debt and have helped keep me on the right path. Today I paid off that loan. I have never been prouder of myself than I am today! It has not been an easy journey and I know I still have a ways to go until I am "debt-free" but this first hurdle has been crossed and the others don't look nearly as tough!
