Type of debt

[tiredsigh]

We have the mortgage and my direct loans from law school. It is the student loan that hurts so much But, my 30 year loan will be paid off within the next 5. I'm hoping for 3 years.

Mortgage (just bought the house last summer)...
Student loans (up the wazoo many years after graduating due to deferments, ugh!)
One car loan (we bought one on credit and one with cash) - just refi'd it and knocked off $100 a month in payments!
Credit cards (pay off every month)

We still have a good chunk of a CD my Mom cashed in for us, in Savings, and are fighting to hang on to that so we can keep a 6-month reserve of
mortgage payments.

I'm hoping to change careers into teaching this fall, but I don't make much more now (if any) than I will as a first-year teacher, so hopefully we will be able to get a jump on things once I'm settled in.

That's all she wrote.
