Great Great Great News! - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

elizabeth1979 · 05-09-2006, 12:19 PM

I just wanted to share some great news here!
After spending 2 years with an alcoholic and operating in Queen Codie mode, I managed to land myself in major debt, and just killed my credit.

After stopping the enabling, looking out for MY best interests, working hard, and being responsible for ONLY me, Im happy to report my credit score is up over 100 points, and I am refinancing my auto loan and reducing my APR from 20.99% to 13.49%.

I have all my credit cards paid off, paid my car insurance renewal in full, have a savings account with money it, and have no unpaid collection items.

I am soooooooooo freakin happy, I just want to jump all over the place!
This is the best reward for taking care of myself.
