After quite a hectic run around with my financial aid, I finally received my grant refund. With that money, the Hubster and I put $1000 directly into our Emergency Fund. That fulfills Baby Step #1 from Dave Ramsey's Seven Baby Steps. We are now working towards paying off our credit card debt. Our credit card debt is very small. It isn't even $1000, which is why we decided to pay these off. That shouldn't take long at all!
After we pay off the credit cards, we need to get another car. Some may say that is a ridiculous idea, but we cannot keep juggling one car. Having that single car run constantly between the both of us is adding miles to the car and wearing down on it. Already, we need to put some maintenance into it just to keep it running so much. So, with the remaining amount after paying bills is going straight into fixing the car. It's a great car. It's been amazing. But the poor car has been working way more than it should be. And it's showing.
WOO HOO! We made it through Baby Step #1! On to Baby Step #2....
