Setbacks this week?

What setbacks are we all facing in the next week or so?


I am getting paid on Friday but instead of my normal bills to pay I have to save for my taxes next weekend which I estimate to cost about $250-300. Then I have my sons KG registration which is $75. I just feel like these are setbacks in my budget but my DH is due for good overtime at the end of March so that paycheck will get us caught back up. Nothing will be late but I like to pay certain bills with certain paychecks and I am frustrated I can't do that this time.


Sidebar: How old does a dog need to be to be on adult dog food? My dog is going to turn one this month and I need to buy new dog food. Should I get the puppy kind or the adult stuff?

You guys are talking about setbacks. I am the queen of setbacks. I did the new amounts last night and it has really made me sick. We don't make a lot so I can't put a lot of extra money on the bills. If I do it hurts in the food department and so on. Just makes me go in the hole and then it is catch up time.


Then also Raymond has been talking that he thought when he retired we could do more which I understand Staying home all the time is really no fun. Seems when we would walk out of the house all we did was spend money I could have snowflaked and it has been hard for me to walk So I stopped going out of the house. Now he is getting cabin fever. Which I totally understand.


For the new teeth my debt will up to where it was in December 2006 again. That means another year of hard times. Not even going to the show or doing anything. We were to the point of being able

I don't think it's cheesy unless she is the one that gave it to you! LOL.
