But we're also right next to M's work. There aren't many jobs for me near us, so if we moved into the cheaper areas, it would probably mean less of a commute for me. We'll see where we're at in a couple years. I like that we're able to share one car too; hopefully that can continue.Sunflowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02917160919955773944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887421078018917420.post-25437226304320102722010-09-30T05:13:12.548-07:002010-09-30T05:13:12.548-07:00What does M do?

Those are impressive bonuses!<br /><br />I have no idea how central your suburb is, but if it's comparable to where we currently rent, prices are about the same.<br /><br />We want to buy eventually, but we'll have to move right out to suburbia proper where we grew up. Which will be okay, I guess. Just means a much longer commute...<br /><br />And hey, you may spend too much on food but at least his income level can support it - it's not choking you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887421078018917420.post-21447987103878209572010-09-25T19:34:22.642-07:002010-09-25T19:34:22.642-07:00Good luck with the tracking!

I just like to have a rough idea and try to stay below my set amount.<br /><br />Good luck with the job hunt!SavingDivahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10267021491907810696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887421078018917420.post-65359425657348566142010-09-22T14:03:41.218-07:002010-09-22T14:03:41.218-07:00He uses Mint.

Try Mint.com - it's free! And maybe find some areas you can cut back to up your debt repayments. Yes focus on the credit cards for now.Sallie's Niecehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03662769521869035227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887421078018917420.post-52660789808445561022010-09-20T17:00:40.532-07:002010-09-20T17:00:40.532-07:00That's how I feel about my student loans as we...That's how I feel about my student loans as well. Perhaps I'll be able to pay on them but for the most part, I'm going to concentrate on other things, like my previous medical debt I racked up when I was younger and my savings goals. Good luck! Sounds like you guys are doing great!Serendipityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05982927577330305194noreply@blogger.com
