That's awesome! Really, you are debt free tomorrow when your loans are paid off. You did it! Just having the cards is fine as long as the two cards are already paid off, and going forward is paid off every month, I don't see that in the calculation of debt. Unless you want to have no credit cards and only debit cards if that works better for you, whatever is your level of comfort on personal finance.
I put just about all purchases on the cards we have if I can, and most definitely agree with you on travel. Also works great with returns and I can't ever be convinced otherwise. Have had a few situations where needed a refund on a check written, and had to wait it out for the money to be returned to me (currently going through that right now on 2k - don't ask folks! Let's just say I should have waited to be sure before writing said check and now waiting for said money back and that's no small amount!)
for you @Tygerlilly!! Congratulations!! for you @imbatman! I hope you're book release went splendidly!
Thank you! It's been a busy day! I think the sales were decent. Won't know for a couple of weeks.
- I don't want to drive 3.5 hours ONE WAY just for consults and follow-ups! Praying for teleconferences up to the surgical date.
- At least it's a specialty clinic that will hopefully be able to use my breast tissue for research for this disease.
- So begins the wait. Again. But the local doctor did say that they may call me soon because of "all of the business going on in there." 
- My boobs are more dramatic than my teenage daughters.
It's a hassle but people often travel long distances to large university hospitals for specialty care, sometimes even have to fly. If it gets you better results it's worth it, IMHO. We sometimes travel further than that for far less important reasons.Thank you! It's been a busy day! I think the sales were decent. Won't know for a couple of weeks.
The local surgeon can't perform the surgery due to some complications I have. So I've been referred to UC San Francisco. I have feelings about this:
. She knew they would have teaching files with no identifiers and it need not show anyone's face. The first doctor had already showed her photos of different options (TRAM vs implant). She said it took all her strength to sit through the rest of the visit and not just get up and walk out. 
Congratulations!! I'm so happy for you.Well, it's officially official. We are debt free!!!
We had about $700 left over after all the payments and since things are back open here (or will be by next weekend) we have decided to splurge on date night and take $300 each to the casino and have dinner at the nice steak house.
We are getting our quarterly bonus on our next check: $1.10 per hour worked during the first quarter. It should work out to around $800ish between both of us. It was also announced we would be getting another $300 each in June.
We've been back and forth on keeping vs selling his car. It's paid off, but needs some front end work, new tires, a new battery, and 2 years of tags paid on it. We can manage with one vehicle, but having 2 would be so much more convenient for everything. So I think I'm going to surprise him and get the tags renewed and buy a battery for it when I go to change the title over on my car when it comes in next week.
TODAY IS THE DAY! Thia morning I paid off my full balance of my medical debt and I am DEBT FREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! I feel so light!
