I finally have a layout that I’m happy with AND my blogroll is working - a nice way to end a Friday afternoon, and a long week at work.
Some exciting things are happening at work, but I’ll write more about them when things are more definite :)
How has everyone been lately?
From Wednesday 7 Feb 2007:
American Express credit card: $1,549.75 AUD
Personal loan: $4,975.23
Total: $6,524.98
Since then:
American Express:
+ Still nothing!!
- $600 in repayments
Total: $9,49.75
Personal Loan: $4,925.23
+ $52.92 (interest, grr!)
Total: $5,028.15
New Total Owing: $5,977.90
This is the first time in MONTHS (over a year, I think!) that my Amex card has been under $1,000 owing, so this is definitely a milestone for me. A little over 3 more weeks, and it will be paid off!!! That is so exciting to me.
And then I can start tackling that personal loan with a similar aggression, so I can stop getting slugged with such high monthly interest fees!
It seems that my problem with the links list/Mysql errors were because of a Wordpress upgrade I did last weekend, and my template not being compatible, so I’m using a generic wordpress layout until I have time to find one that is prettier, and is compatible with the upgraded version.
So excuse the fact that this isn’t very pretty at the moment ;)
Another update to come soon, am feeling pretty unmotivated at the moment :-\
From Wednesday 31 Jan 2007:
American Express credit card: $1,796.92 AUD
Personal loan: $4,975.23
Total: $6,772.15
Since then:
American Express:
+ $52.83 (interest charges… boo!)
- $300.00 (payment today)
Total: $1,549.75
Personal Loan: $4,975.23
New Total Owing: $6,524.98
I was upset with the interest charges - I thought that since I had paid so much off the card last month, it would be a lot less, but apparently not. Well at least there should be very little interest charge for THIS month - and hopefully none by the next month, becausen my credit card will be paid off by then!!. There is light at the end of the tunnel.
Right?
