I know how TOUGH this is. I made this decision several years back after I read a book called Debt Free Living and it totally changed my outlook. I can tell you it has freed me up like nothing else with the exception of weight loss. Losing the debt is a hard thing to do so you deserve a TON of credit for it...not credit card credit...lol..you know what I mean!Holly from 300 Pounds Downhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13281919665062150209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3567385775542087238.post-85412067507881561632012-05-31T15:37:32.292-07:002012-05-31T15:37:32.292-07:00Such an uplifting, positive, heart warming post - ...Such an uplifting, positive, heart warming post - thank you for reminding me to be content and happy with the wonderful things I have in my life. xMarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01256817583022837867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3567385775542087238.post-4005040745271310182012-05-30T12:19:57.963-07:002012-05-30T12:19:57.963-07:00Awesome post!!!! <3Awesome post!!!! <3Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01661630983714342253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3567385775542087238.post-38622514819181582922012-05-30T11:42:42.103-07:002012-05-30T11:42:42.103-07:00Great post sweetie!

We do not have any credit cards anymore and never will again.<br />It is my opinion that credit is the ruination of our American lively hood. It has gotten way out of control both personal credit as well as the freaking government.<br /><br />Love you, and I am so glad you realize you got to be happy where you are, and it is not always easy as we all know!Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13156943361193851644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3567385775542087238.post-86678704671327893832012-05-30T11:01:33.464-07:002012-05-30T11:01:33.464-07:00Great post, Manda!

I have a friend who posts 5 gratitudes on FB every day and seeing her daily post always reminds me to be thankful for the things I do have rather than disappointed in the things I don't have.vickydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15461568169152483129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3567385775542087238.post-13506468354711639222012-05-30T06:51:34.046-07:002012-05-30T06:51:34.046-07:00love you post...great reflection.

We email or text each other. I love this...it has really helped showing each other what we appreciate and he finds things I have forgotten or don't notice. We are in the same boat..been climbing out of our bad debt and bad choices since 2008...this year I can finally sigh relief because I see light at the end of the tunnel....good for you...so want to meet up with you!jennxazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15494091103772165015noreply@blogger.com
