Today we had a meeting with the bank to see about getting a consolidation loan. First off, the lady suggested not including the student loans on it because chances are the student loans will have a better interest rate than they could give. And since the other debts we wanted to consolidate were credit cards, they'd probably make us close the ( Read more... )

Jordan and I are going to go to the bank in the next couple of days and see about possibly getting a consolidation loan for all our crap. Then at least it'll be all paid off at a lower interest rate and we would only have to pay one payment. The things that would go in it would be both of our credit cards, my student loans, and possibly the money ( Read more... )

I made Jordan the sour rhubarb pie yesterday. Not only was it not actually sour.. at all.. but it didn't even come out like a pie. More of a rhubarb crumble. Oh well, it tasted good.

When's it my turn again? :P I'm not actually wondering, because I know it'll be quite a while ( Read more... )

We've decided to start focusing on one debt at a time. (We'll still make minimum payments on all, of course) We're starting on the smallest one, which is my credit card. Jordan and I were able to put a large chunk on there this month. Which is amazing, considering how January has been pretty awful to us. (Sick/missing work, car maintenance, fixed ( Read more... )
