It's taken me 5 years, paying out very dillgently every month, but today, I have paid my last payment on a HUGE, and really I mean HUGE ($$,$$$) amount of debt.  An enormous weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

Hooray! Paying off debt is always a freeing feeling.

Thoughts of the California King waiting for us in Indiana. We've gone from a full bed (which as we all know is smaller than a US double) to what MIL said is a three quarter bed. We're both bed hogs who sprawl everywhere, and we've really missed the king size. I'm glad we thought to store it at mom's instead of selling it.  ;D

Waiting for the bus at the stop next to the garden centre. They must have just shredded up all the unsold Christmas trees and dumped them in a skip. Lovely smell  :) -- much better than traffic fumes!

Awesome!!! You're welcome to have some of mine if you don't know what to do with all that extra money you're going to have laying around.  :P

That is AMAZING! It's a nice, free "on top of the world feeling" huh? Love it!

My hubby and I just paid off a big lump sum of debt and we feel awesome about it (as it freed up a load of finances) BUT we still have a LOOOONNNG ways to go to be debt free! (My University loan is obnoxious!)
