A smaller number...

...and not in a good way. I updated my chart through NCN, and my percentage of debt paid is smaller. In other words, we increased our debt load.

I could give all kinds of excuses. I know no one wants to hear them. I will say a chunk of it will be reimbursed.

Sometimes...you just feel like a failure. A phony.

'nuff said. I'm off to mope.

Keep your head up... You know what to do... So, you move back a bit... No biggie... Just gather yourself, take a deep breath, remember why you started this journey, get mad, and move forward.
I'm pulling for you!!!
Rock on,
NCN

I agree with the others. It's not ideal that you slip up but it's a human thing to do.

There are a finite number of priorities that the human brain can hold at any time and when there's more than that, items jostle for prime position. The result? Sometimes more debt.

I say try to be easier on yourself (once you've had a good mope -- sometimes self-pity has phenomenal healing powers) and then go back to the frugality with renewed vigor.

And remember that, while it would be significantly easier, life would be pretty boring if we were perfect at everything.
