Back in the act

Hey there everyone. It's been a while since I have posted on my blog. A few months to be exact and I really do apologize about that. I had no access to the Internet at my house due to financial woes. Everyone is getting bit by the big one these days and I have just about fallen into that category. Have you all heard about the mortgage melt down that is devastating our economy? Well that has been a big issue for me. Last summer I started to have trouble keeping on track with my mortgage payments. I even fell into the trap that a lot of Americans have fallen in, which is trying to save their house by paying their mortgages with a credit card or some sort of a loan.

I basically have taken out several loans and even a few cash advances to try to stay a float. I will have to say that I am definitely in financial distress. I will however, not say that I am royally screwed though, because there is always some kind of help or a way to get out of any bad situation. I have been slowly been digging myself out of debt by consulting with a credit repair specialist. As it seems I should have most of my debts paid off by the end of the year.

I also am getting help with paying off my student loan. I acquired a student loan through a bank shortly after getting out of the military. In the lump sum of $8000. I now owe $13,000 due to late fees and interest acquired. I did not get any of the benefits that I was supposed to be entitled to from the military though. If any one that happens to read my blog knows of any way that I could get some help trying to access military benefits I would really appreciate it if you left me a comment back. I probably have been trying to access them the wrong way. Both my brother and I served in the military and we have not been able to access our benefits at all. We are constantly told by the V.A. that we are not entitled to them, but I know that we have to be, because we both got out with honorable discharges.

If anyone out there is knowledgeable in this area we would really love to hear from you. Please stay tuned for more info on Fanatic and tomorrow I will be giving you an update on my weight loss progress. I can hardly wait to tell all of you guys out there what's been happening to me. I hope that I can help motivate others out there who have been having the same struggle as I have been having. Good night all.
