After posting that I paid off my student loan, I was informed that the site was back up and running. So I'm going to try this again. 

I'll post significant milestones here but will continue to update via the Slack channel on progress daily. 

Personal news, I got the COVID vaccine today. I cried while getting it because I was scared. I felt better but after speaking with my neice, a nurse, I was scared again. Outside of a little fatigue and soreness of my arm, I feel good. I'm simply putting it in God's hand.

Outside of the COVID vaccine and paying off my first student loan, I have nothing to report.  

As promised, I am reporting that today I scheduled my final payment on student loan number 1. It feels so good to know that I am finally making some traction. 

I’ll admit, I don’t think I would have had it not been for the COVID-19 and a freeze on interest. If this continues through 2021, I can pay off my second loan in six months and start tackling the third one. 

That’s it for now. I created a Slack channel
