Well, the money for the sale of the Vanguad mid-cap index fund and the $256 over $15K in the money market fund appeared in the checking account today and I applies $4,253 to the HELOC (8%) and that leaves a remainder of $755.06 which I will pay off by 1/31/2008.
What a great feeling! I was one content to see that $4100 in the midcap sitting there in the asset column, sticking my head in the sand about the HELOC (actually saying "It is ONLY $56 a month). I am glad that people were candid and frank about it costing me money in the long-run. I am glad I could be honest about the situation (I do tend to sugar-cost things) With the extra money, I will apply it to the AmEx Blue ($9,900 at 3.99%)
To celebrate this success, I am transferring another $8.00 from my living expense account to my E*Trade - representing my coupon savings from yesterdays shopping!
Thanks to this great forum!

Now for one of my favorite phrases..."What's next?"
Debt snowball or savings account?
