I lied...

So much for shifting my priorities! I have a problem when it comes to saving money. It does one of two things...burns a hole in my pocket OR burns a hole in my conscience. Lately it's been more of the latter than anything else. I let money accumulate and then decide that it would be better served if I sent it off to one of my debts. I tried to increase my savings for about a month...then decided 2 things. I had something that I wanted to buy, and getting a house is less important to me right now than becoming debt free. So, I split the money and paid cash for the thing I wanted (a new bike, as I am a triathlete) and also paid down some bills. Now it's time for me to refocus back onto the track that I was on previously...get rid of this debt once and for all. Then focus on saving for the long term.
