Month 7: I fell off the wagon for a week

The week of June 22 - 28th really got me good. I fell off the wagon, guys! I feel like it took over my entire month, but today I'm taking back control and cleaned up my vape.

EDC happened and no one was allowed to bring in vapes, 99% of the friends I was with smoked so it was an easier fix for me. That one night led to the next day, to buying a pack, to buying another pack and a lighter for the following weekend. I made a lot of bad health decisions this week, but I don't want to beat myself up for it. I'm on vacation and got carried away with fun and making memories. Yes, I got drunk, I smoked, and this & that. That is no excuse, but the main thing is that I recognize where I messed up at and need to get back up. I'll call it an occasional slip up?

I could have easily just covered up the lie and say I did perfectly wonderful, but what's the point of this one year journey to recovery if I don't tell the truth about how hard it can get, too. There you go, I slipped up for a week. I let a melting pot of toxins in my body, recognize the problem, and pick up where I left off.

Cheers xoxo.

debt free: June 2015 breakdown

(Debt # & Outstanding Balance)

Debt #4: $0 = $10,650

This month went by quickly and this update will probably be one of the shortest post EVER! Since I have been putting in more to the monthly payment the due date has been pushed to November 2015. To save the confusion of constantly apologizing or why the balance is not budging, this will be my last post on this debt until November.

I will resume paying monthly in November again.

month 6: like a breeze

I know its about two weeks late of a post, but I am finally starting my summer vacation. This month did not have much new changes because it was easy breezy. I did not crave nicotine as much and my vape fully charged last longer than usual. I was not reaching out for it as much as before, and noticed that I am having less breakout. My energy is back to normal as if I have never smoked a stick in my life, so that's the best news I've got.

Ta-da! I am half way to my "one year" vaping journey.

debt free: May 2015 breakdown

(Debt # & Outstanding Balance)

Debt #4: $500 = $10,650

Well, there's that. This has to be the biggest payment we have ever made for this last debt since it is our last student loan. The reason behind paying 5X the actual minimum monthly payment was to move the due date forward to help us out with the move in August. Instead of the next due date being July after paying $500 in May, I was able to move it down to November. Perfect! That will give us time to try and settle a little bit when we move.

We're trying to play catch up right now because I am starting to feel overwhelm with so many things to do by myself here and UGH I feel dead! I got a little off track with the spending last month because Ulta.com App happened :(  - Forgive me! I am trying extra hard, that's all that matters right now.
