what a relief

Today I drove to Jackson, MS and wrote a check for $15,450 to pay off student loans I took out while working on my bachelor's degree.

I cannot even begin to describe the feeling I had after I walked out of the building and into the warmth and sunshine. I didn't realize how much those loans weighed on me until they were lifted. I am so very thankful that I was able to pay them off- rather than pay payments for the next 10 years.

My husband and I are so happy about getting rid of those loans! Today is definitely a day to celebrate :)

For the moment, I can breathe a little easier.
