I love Tuesdays!

Hooray for TUESDAY! Yay for Dave Ramsey day! I get more and more excited each week as Tuesday rolls around. I love even more that my sister and I are doing this together, with our husbands and we have each other as our "accountables" and help us through this lifelong process! I don't think it really sank into Jeremy how "gung ho" I was about this process and truly doing it the way you are suppose to... but I think he understands as of Saturday. We were leaving Abilene and he asked me if I wanted to get something to drink before we left town. I simply stated "I am not thirsty and I do not NEED a drink, would I LIKE a drink, of course, but I can put that $2 towards something that we NEED" I think it all sank in then how truly disciplined that I had become. Tonight we start the dreaded, in depth, cash flow budget! Wish us luck! We've been working hours upon hours on getting our budget prepared for this upcoming month when it's suppose to "start"! I am totally excited about how it's all going to work. This process has definitely made us more aware of how we are spending our money. Money can either control YOU or you can control your MONEY. I have been in places in my life where money was controlling me, but thank God, we do not have to live like many others do and worry about so many bills, debts, etc. It truly was a blessing that Jeremy didn't go on harvest this past year as he was suppose to take the plunge of buying a truck and leasing a combine. THANK YOU JESUS for not letting us jump into that huge pile of debt. So, I am anxious to see what awaits at class tonight and what all we get to do this upcoming week!
