It is clear to us that my income and her supplemental income will not get us out of our deep crater of debt. I know it is not as much as some, but it is overwhelming none the least. I have called and stopped into a few pizza shops locally around town to be a delivery driver. This is something I did in college and made decent money as a college student. It averaged anywhere from $12-16 hour depending on the night. There were perks then: free pizza, soda, wings, subs, salads and appetizers. Almost everything a male college student could want and some females too. 

I would say the idea of doing this again is humbling, romantic, depressing, and encouraging all wrapped into one. Humbling knowing that I will probably be one of the few besides the owner that would be above college age. Romantic, well maybe more nostalgic than anything reliving those days gone by as I did really enjoy the job. Depressing knowing that we dug ourselves into this and now have to get out. Which means I miss the standard 9-5 monday through friday schedule with weekends off, having family dinners, tucking the kids into bed, and spending time with my wife. Encouraging as we are FINALLY going to do this, finally going to kick Sallie Mae, EdFinancial, Mastercard, Visa, and Discover out of the house. 

It will be a journey that will not be forgotten and to hopefully never be repeated.

 

How about you? What are you doing?
