Also made an appointment with my credit union to discuss how to improve my credit score. I have no credit vs bad credit. Some say that's worse. We shall see..

Feels like I'm wrangling up some ducks at long last....

You're right. Nowadays, no credit means you could be a bomb waiting to go off or something. Verrrrry suspicious.



An easy way to grow your credit would be to get a rewards credit card through your credit union or bank. You can get set up auto payments of your normal bills on the credit card and that way you only make payments to the credit card each month, your bills get paid and you build credit. It's a win-win-win as long as you don't go buck wild when you get the card.

That would be counterproductive.

Also, you can get a gas card. I've had one for years now and unless I'm road tripping it, rarely put more than $20-30 on it per month but it does help to build credit and when funds are tight one month, I can rely on it for my fuel.

What brought me joy this morning was a teensy weensy dip on the scale. I'll take it!
