I can understand ho...Wow, congrats to both of you!! I can understand how big of a deal this is!! Dec was a crazy month for us as well this year and while after going through Financial Peace Univ, we don't use our credit cards routinely, we have been known to use them "if we had to" and then just pay them off at the end of the month. Well, during Dec, we had unforseen things happen that made us have to transfer money from savings several times, and feel really crunched -- all while trying to buy things for Christmas. It wasn't comfortable to say the least and often times we were stressing. However, come Christmas, Chris & I were discussing the weird month and trying to figure out how we survived and it hit me -- "umm we never once used the credit cards to bail us out". The credit card never even came to mind until AFTER everything was over. Something that small seems like a God thing because had I thought about it earlier on, I would have used it in order to relieve some of the stress & then just paid it off when the bill came in Jan and things were back to normal! However -- we made it, even while having to use some of our emergency fund! It's a hard road for sure -- BUT very rewarding at the end!! Happy for you guys!!Janettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10537637023778828307noreply@blogger.com
