(Almost) Debt Free

I don't think anyone can ever be completely debt free. Not if you live in California anyway. Our home mortgage is enough to keep us in debt until we're very, very old. I also have another year or so to pay on my car. No, the debt that I am referring to is Speedy's winter vet bill.

No political statement intended. It's just funny.

I could have paid it off sooner, but I would have had to miss out on the summer show season. Even my husband agreed that the small finance charge was worth it if it meant being able to show. It could have also been that he simply didn't want to live with a wife who had to stay home all summer instead of showing. He's a smart man.

Finally!

I know the last payment amount and last statement balance don't make sense, but that's because I like to annoy the credit card company by sending multiple payments over the month. It makes bookkeeping on my side easier. Who cares how much work I make for them? They're getting paid for it, believe me.

It's the red circle on the left side that's important. For someone who never carries a credit card balance, this past year has been very stressful. Every time I got one of Speedy's vet bills taken care of, he'd injure something new. Or Izzy needed something. Or they both needed dentals. And then they needed vaccinations. It was freaking NEVER ENDING. And now I have a clean slate.

​The End.
