Payday

October 4th, 2012 at 06:20 pm

Yesterday was payday so I paid my mortgage and rent. I also budgeted 125 for groceries. The 125 is a bit low but I only had 200 left after the mortgage and rent. It will be a tight week. Luckily I get 5 pay days this month so my plan is to pay my overdue utilities next week and then pay the current utilities on my 4th paycheck. If all goes well, my over due utilities and overdue car payment should be caught up. that will be a pretty good accomplishment.
what does suck though that today is my anniversary and I am working from home today because I am sick. I would like to take the wife out but being sick and broke........

    Happy Anniversary!! Maybe you can eat dinner by candlelight or dim lights tonight. It's free. Hope you feel better soon.

    Congratulations on starting your budget. That's the second step to getting out of debt. Deciding you want to get out of debt is the first step.

    Sometimes, when the food budget is a little tight, we will try to adjust the week's menu based on what is on sale. It can lead to some interesting and unexpected meals, but at least it is insurance that we don't overspend. Good luck!
