HOORAY FOR TODAY & It's Simple Love

I haven't been feeling well lately so it's been hard for me to sit in front of the computer and post.  VERY SORRY.  But I do have great news!!!  As of today, I am debt free!!!!!!  Hooray!  Of course that doesn't include school loans and new marriage stuff like our new vehicles and what not.  But no more credit card debt.  What a relief.  I don't even own a credit card anymore.  I just let my hubby deal with the credit cards, because he is much more responsible with money than I am.  There has to be one of those in every relationship.  Anyway, I just wanted to share that with you guys.  Good news.  Don't you just love good news?!

Btw... we're planning on watching Robin Hood tomorrow.  Oh my gosh it looks SO good!!!  I heart Russell Crowe.  He is so amazing in these types of epic films.



What are you doing to jump start your weekend?


P.S.  Cirque du Soleil was AWESOME!!!  Kooza was amazing.  If this show rolls through your town... it is a must see!

P.P.S. Please take a minute to hop on over to Racheal of It's Simple Love's blog.  She conducted a little interview about me and I give a few tips on opening an Etsy shop.  She is a lovely girl with an amazing blog and I know you will love it as much as I do.  Check out the interview HERE.

 Isn't she gorgeous?!

  15. Congratulations on the debt! That is such great news. I thought we were in that position, but while snowed in back in February I discovered my wife had built up a huge debt. It was quite a shock.

    I really like Crowe in those roles too--I don't like him at all in other types of films. I know, it's weird! =)

    I hope you feel better soon--and that you get pampered in the meantime!

  24. Wish you lived closer so we could have a blogger meet up! I've never had one, but you would be my first. That almost sounds dirty to say. Haha.

  25. Hey Sweetie! Loved your interview with Rachel. So glad you introduced her to us! As for getting my weekend started?... no big plans, I just want the weather to be nice! It's been raining up here in MN for the last 4 days! :-(

  26. YAY for good news! That's a really good news. That you're debt free & that you rely on your hubby for dealing with credit cards. I don't own one (yet) and I'm happy I don't because I seriously wouldn't trust myself with one! Haha.

    Glad to see you enjoyed your CdS show! I can't wait to see Totem in June, I'll defs let you know how it goes! I'm off to Mexico now! Take care!

    xoxo

  37. Aw, I hope you feel better soon. Nothing worse than being sick :(

    Congratulations on being debt free! I have so much debt hanging over my head - house and Uni are the big ones, the next will be the wedding :/ I have never had a credit card, because I have taught myself that if I don't have the money, I'll just have to save and wait! That said, I don't have a 'good credit rating' so applying for loans is harder. It's a vicious circle, haha.

    Hope you have a great weekend. Enjoy the movie!

  43. My husband is so excited for this movie! He is begging me to go! I agree she is gorgeous!

  44. I studied some of manicure and for the colored nails it's good to use lemon. But to avoid this problem is better paint with a base before, like a transparent or white nail polish before the red one.


    The movie looks great, and I want to see Cirque du Soleil too bad. I hope get the opportunity to see them one day.

    Congrats for the interview! :)

    Have a great weekend!!!!

  54. Hey Amy you have to give me some tips how to be 'debt-free'! I just couldn't stop spending (*sniff)...

    Sorry to hear about your etsy imitators, can't they just create their own? I know what you mean, there's loads of people grabbing other ideas which is not good but I hope the people will sense which is which!

    I will hop on over to Racheal's blog to check your interview, it is surely awesome :)

    p.s.
    Glad you liked your prize, I was wary about it... happy to know you finally received it! Mailmen these days are smart enough to deal with someone like me teeheeeheee!

    Happy Monday! xxxxx

  57. Congrats! I'm working towards clearing my credit card debt as well. Of course, I'll still have student loans to pay off but that can be done over time.

    I really want to see Robin Hood as well. I'm a big fan of Russell Crowe.

    Hope you feel better soon. Have a good week.
