October hasn’t been the best in the way of reducing our debt.  First, I switched our focus from debt reduction to savings again earlier this month.  Then we bought some things that we plan to sell on Ebay next month because we know we can make a decent profit on them since they are hard to find items that people will be hunting down for Christmas (that set us back almost $700, but we should get our money plus about $200 in profit which seemed worth it to me).

I was able to collect some “snowflake” money and send an extra $165 above and beyond my $130 to my current debt snowball focus, so that took that credit card to 55% paid off now!  That’s a nice feeling.

Still feels like we’re way behind though and I don’t like that feeling.  Hopefully once we sell the Ebay items and get the cash for those and put it towards some debt I will feel better.  I just feel like things are out of control, even though they really aren’t.

Gosh, it’s almost the end of October.  Time to start getting serious about Christmas shopping…(really just need to buy supplies to make homemade jam and gift basket items).
