The plan is to use the Snowball Debt Plan. It's where you line up your bills smallest to largest and start paying off with the smallest. Then when you finish paying that off you take that payment and apply it to the next bill + that payments bill. If that doesn't make any sense just let me know. You can google the plan and it will provided a better explanation.
I think this is the book if I am not mistaken,

My husband and I started this plan in the beginning of this year. It worked out really well and we got a few bills paid off.
We had to prepare for our wedding in October so everything stopped. So, we will start it back up in Jan. We are also going to start saving for our emergency fund as well.
I will have a more detailed plan mapped out by the end of December.
Good look to you ladies!Common Sense is a Rare Disease and I am so glad that I was born with this unique disorder and wouldn't accept a cure if it was offered.

Thank you, MzCuteBrownLeo. I do have a side gig that im eyeing that i can do, it takes footwork, but i know i can (and really NEED to) do it. Ive just been so down on our situation, i havent pursued it (kinda hard to do footwork, when you are making sure you have enough gas money to get to work everyday). But no more pity parties, its [been] time for action

Thank you Pank fairy for Panking me!!! Blessings to you! XOXOXO

1.) Pay off credit cards.
2.) Save enough to move into my own place.
3.) Create an emergency fund.
I have a fulltime job and started 2 businesses this year, this should be doable.[url=http://thebohobeauty.blogspot.com/]My Blog: The Boho Beauty[/url]

Goodluck everyone on their goals.
My plans are to pay off my car and work to have more in emergency savings. Also I need to up my 401k percentage. I have a few other goals too but those are most important right now.
