Finally caught up--holding my breath!

Well, I just paid enough bills to get us caught up, almost $800 worth. It leaves us with just under $200 for the week...started shopping for groceries at a market about 20 miles from the house, but it has cut my grocery bill by $40 a week, so I keep going back. I figure after groceries, I'll have about $40 for the week, and even that will depend on how much it costs to put gas in the minivan. Still have $ from eBay in my PP acct, so it's there if I need it, and I have some of my meager child support left too, which I may dip into for gas money, plus I am still waiting on a MO for the last eBay item waiting to be shipped. We're not destitute yet!

I feel so much better now (sort of!)...it's amazing that it took me less time to e-pay all those bills than it did to tally them up on paper the other day so I wouldn't pass out when it came time to pay them--lol!

Now, the REAL work begins...keep good thoughts for us this week--no emergencies!!

Thanks for listening!
