Shoes

So I've had the same brown clogs for...at least 8 years and it shows:

The middle of both shoes can bend in half and the heel of both is missing most of the rubber. They were really not good for my feet or posture, but I still wanted to wear them as they still were comfortable.

I am really picky when it comes to shoes, so it has really frustrated Tim over the years. :) Finally, we found some! Actually Tim found one that I had completely passed over! I got a black and brown pair. I needed black because my black boots' heels were half there too...*sigh*



Tim found these black ones! He was so proud of himself! :)
Pretty excited to find shoes I actually liked. :)

Operation School Loans: 1 PAID!

In an earlier post, I listed Tim's school loans so I could get a visual. I am happy to say that we paid the Sallie Mae loan with our tax return! I am SO EXCITED. One down, two huge ones to go, but it's a start and I am so thankful!

Sallie Mae, originally: $7,815.21
Amount Still Left when we paid it off: $2,555.68

At the rate we were going now, it would have been another 2 years before we would have paid this off!

YAY!
