My first “personal retreat”

Last week, we accomplished something that we’ve been chasing since we got married; we paid off the credit card debt!
Sadly, I was VERY foolish with my spending habits back in my single days and brought a small mountain of credit card debt into our marriage. We were enrolled in ‘consumer credit [...]
