Well she lives with her dad but I'm working on getting visitation back, which is alternate weekends. Right now we're meeting for dinners and with the parental liaison, but my goal is to get back to seeing her one on one having time together to do things like see a movie, go swimming, go for a walk, etc. So I need to have my fun money. Kids are costly especially if you believe in experiences being important in life, which I do.
I have been thinking and I really think the best thing to do is pay off my credit cards with my tax return, or my mom, and save a couple more months. The reason for the credit cards is interest, mom's loan has been interest free. I'll have to really think though I tend to use credit when I have it and I really would rather just have them for emergencies or something.
