My Exciting News

So the exciting news I have is that I received a job offer and accepted it on Monday!  I am receiving a nice increase in salary, comparable benefits and most of all opportunity for advancement.  My last day is next Friday and I will receive three weeks of pay along with over 40 hours of vacation time.  I am going to pay the bills that are due in the beginning of August with this check because my first full pay check will not be until August 7.  I will receive a smaller check on July 22, but I have no clue how to they will calculate, I am thinking it will be for 4 days.  I will have to become accustomed to the pay schedule; this company pays twice a month, where as I was getting a pay check every other week.  I seriously am looking at my finances again and figure out that I can dump a minimum of $500 into savings every month and $500 towards my debt.  I am estimating that I can pay all the debt off except for the car by the end of this year or even sooner.  We shall see what happens over the rest of the year.
