There has been some excessive spending here and there, but if I continue to cook, that will help me save some cash.  I purchased a ledger, this should help me keep up with all of my finances.  I can make this work.  
Order for taking care of these bills, I sent in $200 today, the final payment will be mailed by the end of this month.  The total cost is $464.
Directv $464
ADT    $1064
Medical $900
Medical $574
Pay $200 everything month until they are all paid off.  I did pay for my braces, no more payments on that.  I paid for 2 months of storage.  Not paying that bill after the end of this month.  I have to do right by my finances.  Plus, the property management is working out.  The place has been rented out.  All extra monies, put in a good place.  I did sign up to do a outside yard sell.  This will give me a chance to sell the candles, but the weather really looks bad.  
I must not do wrong by the money, I keep saying that.  I don't want to end up with nothing to show for what I had.  I know I waste much, but I can't continue to do that.  Overall, I feel good about where I am going and what is going on.  
Things I've gotten rid of
Directv               140 a month
Caller Tunes
Braces paid in full  100 a month
Ancestry.com  
Things I need to get rid of
Wireless card 
Anyway that I can cut corners I will try, the only reason I haven't gotten rid of the home line is that it's connected to my security system.  
Plus, I am going to take some time off from school and Sallie Mae has been calling and calling.  Majority of my debt is student loans.  When looking at my credit report, I really don't have bad debt.  I do have a credit card with a $300 limit.  Paying off the above debts would help my score much.  My goal is to have at least a 650 credit score by the end of the year.  I do believe that can be done if I keep putting money where it should be.  As long as I owe, the money I make is not mine.  In my mind, when I get ready to spend put that money toward a debt.  
Paying off debt is very important to me and it may get obsessive.  Have to have something to worry over.  
Bills that I pay
mortgage
water
power
gas
Netflix
Hulu2
TMobile
The money that is left over should go to debt.  Did I mention I am going on a trip this summer.  I have to get this paid for soon.  
I haven't been the best financial planner, I know, but I can and will handle this issue.
