Well....

Good news first. I came home for lunch and just had a sandwich, crackers and water. Then I realized I need contacts so ordered them. $90 I had not planned on spending. Then I came home and paid bills. We have $20 in the checking acct until Thursday. I think we should be ok. We just filled up with gas and got some milk at the store. Other downers - got the bill for the car registration today - another $78 I had not planned on spending this month. Good news is I checked my student loan balane online and I only owe $179 which I will pay off at the end of this month.

I will come home again tomorrow for lunch. I just have to make sure I get up early enough to eat breakfast so I don't grab something on the way again. The bad news is that with the new job I start soon I won't be able to get home for lunch. The (sort of) good news is that there really isn't anywhere to eat out around there (it's in a bad area of town) so I will have to bring my lunch. I have already invested in a good insulated lunch bag.
