Thank you for the kind words!</description>

		<description>I just read your blog after seeiing your post about taxes on the DR messagebord.  So does this mean that you are going to have $258 extra to throw at CC4?  You are payingoff the first 3, right?  If so that is AWESOME!  That will almost double the payment you are sending!  Congratulations!  You will get that ball rolling and will see huge progress.  I love your attitude, be on the lookout for those snowflakes..... they can add up quick and evert littlebit helps!  Good luck!</description>

		<description>We are cutting and trimming the budget just to balance it to zero.  Extra cash is
coming from selling stuff!

There are some great snowball calculators out there, but until we get some forward
momentum the snowball just gets bigger when I try them!  LOL

So we&#039;re pinching and selling material goods and looking for more income.

If you have a favorite snowball calculator you&#039;ve use please post it here.  I know
others would like the link too.</description>

		<description>It sounds like a worthy goal to me!  Have you found any snowball calculators?  Isn&#039;t there one on the Dave Ramsey site?  How much extra do you have right now to throw at your snowball?</description>
