Is this it? Is this the moment?

For years... or more like - for ever - I've been dirt poor. Not homeless poor, but too-much-month-left-when-bank-account-is-empty poor. Now I've landed this cool new job with a hefty raise and I've now worked almost all of my first month. I've tried not to, but my head have been spinning for months about all the things I'm gonna do with all this

For awhile, you can breath free but eventually, your lifestyle will adjust to your now new but by then old, pay level and, you'll want more. David earns more than I could ever have imagined and still, we have to budget, put off, save because now we have a house and a kid in college, which here costs some real money. Breath easy for awhile, take your long-needed vacation with Zoe, I presume, but always stay just a little hungry :)

If it'll for just a while, it'd be more than enough. Just to be able to have a savings account to begin with, is a huge step!

Take pride in that, it is a huge step and serious accomplishment :)

And after all this time of scraping by you deserve it, hon! *hugs*
