MIA for 6 Months

My poor blog. I've neglected you for the last 6 months. Major life event (got married) and everything that came along with it (party planning, dress fittings, workouts, travel, bridal showers, etc.) consumed all my time. Money-wise, the year leading up it pretty much consisted of minimum payments to creditors and super-tight budgets. Everything else had to go wedding and honeymoon expenses. Now that it's done, as a husband-and-wife unit with our combined incomes and expenses, we can focus on eradicating our debt. The money that was going into wedding, now goes into debt payments. We worked out a micro-detailed budget, so that we knew how each and every dollar from our paychecks was going to be spent. We're following Dave Ramsey's approach: pay off smallest balances first. With our systematic schedule, our credit card bills will be paid off at the end of this year - which is HUGE!
