…to a better life. I hope, anyway. Our Chapter 7 was filed yesterday & we go to court on April 16. Things should start to get a lot easier for us pretty soon. I’ve already started budgeting our money better & being more careful with what we spend it on. We switched from name brand soda to store brand, now I just have to negotiate all of the pop displays to find what I want. My favorite, which is a diet cola with lime doesn’t seem readily available in 12-packs, so I had to get diet ginger ale & then some 2 liter bottles of the cola. I have found others that I like, too and we’ve both discovered we like the store stuff just as much as the expensive brand. I mean name brand has been almost $5 a twelve-pack, which to me is way too much, more than I’m willing to spend anyway.

I’m just excited to be alive again. We live in a beautiful, clean home, with a great yard, the debt isn’t killing us anymore & we have a lot to look forward too. Bring it on! I can’t wait until spring, so we can start gtting out yard cleaned up & looking great, too. It’s going to be a fantastic year!
