Patience, patience, patience

I am waitng for the one of the credit card companies to post the interest on my debt so that I can update my numbers. Hopefully that will happen tonight.

One of my goals was to start a part-time job, which I did a couple of weekends ago. I can't wait to get paid so that I can put apply that money to my debt. Mentally, I have to keep reminding myself that the part-time job pay is for debt reduction because I start thinking of other things I can do with the money other than reduce the debt.

Maybe my mantra should be:

My part-time pay is for debt reduction. Debt reduction means loosening the debt shackles. Loosening the debt shackles means financial freedom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess I'm just impatient.

I started working at a women's clothing store. It's fun especially compared to my full-time job. It will be challenging because I love clothes, and I love to shop. As a matter of fact, that's how I got in this situation (at least one of the reasons). I work every Saturday and Sunday. My plan is to put at least $100 per week towards my debt.

Hi - I just found your blog through your comment at Blogging Away Debt. You and I are at about the same point in our debt reduction journeys. I started in June and have about $27K in total debt. I'm going to add you to my blogroll so I can cheer you on. We can do this!
