Phase 1 Complete

I need to go mobile with this in order to keep up with my blogging...there are times I catch myself thinking to myself a subject and wanting to write about it, but then it goes away because I do not have access right then and there.

Well as a little catch up...I have completed phase 1 of one of my resolutions (because I have 4 cards that I need to pay off, paying off 1 would be considered phase 1). Recently Isaac and I received an unexpected check from the bank...this being due to the fact that within our first year, our value went down and so did our taxes, we had over paid in Escrow... So with this pleasant little surprised, we debated on ways to spend it....furniture for the house, housework, yardwork, vacation, etc...after arguing that we could spend the money vs. putting it away, a little trip to Target changed it all.

For those of you that know my husband, Isaac...he is a huge techy...always up to date with the latest technology trends and even if he doesn't like a product 100% he likes to play and test them out. So while in Target one night getting groceries, we ended up in the electronic section, specifically near the iPads...
Isaac has been holding out for the Palm Pad since the iPad came out and Palm gave any sign of creating one; however, he needed a quick fix: purchase an iPad. So since we had that money, we decided we would each spend the same amount and put the rest in savings. After going back in forth between a camera, new laptop, home goods or shopping spree, I finally realized that there wasn't anything that I absolutely had to have and decided to pay off a credit card.

Ah it feels good...I'm this much closer to getting the rest paid off!!!
