I made a Kris Kross reference to some people today. They didn’t get it. I had to explain it. Now I’m all sad.

Dude. It was not that long ago.

Besides. Kris Kross totally gonna make you jump.

Progress

Comments off

I have a ridiculously complicated Excel spreadsheet that I use to play out payment plan scenarios and keep track of progress with this. It took me an entire Sunday, several months ago, to create it and come up with a game plan for repaying the debt—but it was totally worth it as now I pretty much just have a checklist to go down, which is nice.

I’d say I have paid off about 26-28% of the total outstanding debt since August. This is pretty notable progress especially since for the past few years until this point, I had thought I was “working on it” but I never seemed to get anywhere, at all. So now I can see the numbers actually going down, to which all I have to say is: Yay!

So. Let me just get this straight. For the past two weeks we’ve been hovering around 60°F (about 15°C) — in fact it was much too warm to wear a coat outside, so I was just wearing a hoodie for a jacket, and even that was pretty much just because “it’s late November and I am required by law to wear a coat” more than actual need — and yesterday it was 60°F and rainy, and now today we’re dropping down to freezing, going to get sleeted upon, and then get 3-5 inches of snow followed by another 3-5 overnight?

Stupid great lakes. Stupid lake effect weather conditions. Stupid wintertime. I do not approve.
