Welcome to Freedom Friday, where bi-weekly I share how we’re doing with our pursuit of paying off debt. I’m hoping that many of you will also e-mail me with your story (with either “Freedom in Progress” or “Freedom Achieved” in the subject line) so I can share your story to encourage others, too.
This week’s Freedom in Progress story comes from Lady Kelly who writes:
Hi Queen of Free –
Thank you for sharing your financial freedom journey. My husband and I just paid off one of our debts today. It is an exhilarating feeling to feel the weight of debt lifting off my shoulders. I used to lose sleep over worrying about having enough money to pay the bills. It was awful. Then we tightened our belts and began living on a “beans and rice, rice and beans” budget. We have paid off 30,000 since March and only have two debts left.
I love your blog!

Way to go Lady Kelly! All of the Money Saving Lords and Ladies are proud of your hard work. Before you know it, you’ll be screaming “I’m debt free!!” from the rooftops. $30K in less than a year is quite an accomplishment. You should be proud of yourself and keep up the good work. You inspire all of us to keep on trucking. Thanks again for sharing your story!

This is a test. This is only a test. If this had been a real emergency… oh wait, I’m getting carried away.
Anyway, I love the new blog digs!
