I'm back from a hiatus. Lots has happened. We bought a house....just finished moving in last night! My husband quit his job and is opening a business. And we survived the holidays. But the move has caused me to start thinking.

The house we bought is in the country. And when I say country, I mean OUTSIDE CITY LIMITS, NO SUBDIVISION, NO STORE FOR 20 MILES COUNTRY. Although it does make my commute to work 15-20 minutes less, I am thinking about how I will have to change my processes and thinking. I can't go down the street to grab milk or trashbags! And although the store is only 20 minutes away, I may have to have more things on hand. So I think I need to change how I look at things. But a positive thing...no more random trips to the store for impulse shopping!!!

2nd thing....Husband and New Business. What a leap! I have the most faith in my husband, but I have to admit that it is scary. We have the seed money, plus some money built up for our household expenses until the store is going...which is hopefully next week. But going from financial security to "hold on to your pants" is a little overwhelming.

But hopefully I can now make progress on paying off the debt and pursue some other goals and dreams of mine.
