August was the worst month. I really didn't get the plans laid out like I was wanting to do. We had so many things happening that it was difficult to stay focused. September I have no choice. I have got to get things in order. I let a couple of bills slip last month so this month I am playing catch up. I could just kick myself. Hubby had to reallocate some of his 401k to help free up some much needed funds. He is a hugh advocate of saving for our retirement. I had to have a heart to heart with him the other night. With gas prices so high and food prices alone we are really struggling. However, if I didn't have all this credit card debt then we would be just fine. What really scares me is that next fall my daughter will be going to college. Why did I let this happen? Anyway, I can't change the past but I can diffently do something about the future. Here are a few of my ideas.....let me know what you think.
1. Have a garage sale.
2. Cancel pool service. ($155.00 per month savings)
3. Pawn a ring.
4. Sell some items on eBay.
5. Sell wooden swing set on Craigs List.
I am also wondering about becoming an affiliate for Amazon. Any information would help greatly.
Pressing On...

I would definately go on the garage sale direction, ebay & maybe craigs list -- I am not familiar with the amazon thing - but would definately look into it! Before you do the ring, make sure that it doesn't have any emotional value to it - keep that as a last resort for sure. good luck to you.
I think selling things on ebay/craigslist or garage sale is a good way to go.
I sold a few books on amazon marketplace and made some extra cash. Not sure if that is what you mean by amazon affliate?
Good luck!
Sell the items on Ebay and on Craigslist, but if the ring means something dont pawn it! Sentimental value!
But you are right, you cant change the past so you have to move past that and get that out of your system, whatever moves you want to make for the future have to start right now!! You will be fine! Confidence!
Get out of that depressed mode. I dont like visiting your site and seeing that post title at the top! Be easy!
