They are my almost every free thought so I supposed I should write about them.
I’m 2/3’s of my credit card’s limit, plus lots of other bills. There’s no way we could ever pay that credit card off. We’re still taking from our dwindling savings but then what? My 401K I suppose, not that there is [...]
