Alright, truth time. It's been slow, and I work a lot, and my wrists are jacked from computer use, so I'm underachieving a lot here. I was pulling $100+ a week for a few months, but now I struggle to $50. I did look back the other day and realize that wow, in a month, I will have paid off $5000 in debt (not including car payments...) in 13 months, even with the chaos of moving 5 times, buying a car, struggling, etc but still sometimes enjoying myself, feeding my animals well, etc.

But this past week I overspent on my credit card and can't pay it off with this paycheck I got today, because I need groceries and gas. So i need to have less fun and be on here more :(
At least you understand how go there and what you need to do, most people usually are denial about that stuff or they justify it. Plus great job on paying off that debt

You should be proud of yourself for paying off $5,000 in debt -- that's great! I would just do as much as you can on mturk and try to pay off what you overspent. Don't get down on yourself, but remember how you got in debt in the first place and don't do it again. Debt sucks.

Well, a lot of that debt was for a wedding that never happened that I didn’t call off... lol... I’ll try not to do that again.
