It’s been a month since I started blogging, and I would like to thank my top PF blogger referrers. Thanks! For those who would like to link exchange, let me know and I can add you to my blogroll.
April Debt Paid:
I pay $500 to the parents loan today. Yessssssss! I’ve adjusted the progress bars to reflect the changes. I have $7450 left to pay, which sounds pretty awesome considering this time last month I had $9220 left. With no other adjustments or changes, at $500 per month, I can have this paid off in 15 months–July 2010. Sounds like a long time, but as long as the number continues to decrease, it’s all good. Plus, that is not counting any extra income, cash gifts or future tax refunds I may get between now and then.
This Weekend:
This weekend will be pretty hectic. I am heading to North Carolina for two showers for my BFF: one that is hosted at my parents’ home, and one that I am co-hosting at a restaurant. I haven’t seen my mom since we found out she has cancer, so it will be great spending some time with her. The one I am hosting is with my sister and we have a pre-set brunch menu for all the guests. Initially it was suppose to be an intimate number of nine girls, but it has grown to fourteen guests at $10 per person plus tip. Gah! Oh well, it’s all in the name of love, right?
Projected Budget:
Dining: $15 – for on the road and possible Saturday night dinner
Shower Cost: $100 – for half of the meal and flowers
Gas: $60 – driving a lot a lot a lot
Gotta love it when the paycheck is almost completed depleted in the first week. ;) Have a great weekend y’all!

Haha I was just complaining about this myself. =)
Nice progress!! Thanks for the link back too!
You’ve paid off loads – well done! The next year will zip by (honestly, its terrifying). $10 a head sounds pretty good for a nice meal out – hope you enjoy it!
Well done on paying off $500, the rest will be gone in no time.
Thanks for the link :)
