How in the hell did it happen? How in the hell do I have more than $1,000 less this month than last. Grrrrr! Especially when I'm on unemployment. I get $573 a week, and that should be enough.
I did go to the mountains for a weekend, and my family is planning a vacation that cost me $400. Plus, I know I'm getting sloppy. What I need to do is set a budget. But I find it so hard. How do I know how much I can spend on drinks, restaurants? It just never seems to work for me. Life is just too sloppy.
But this isn't working either. I need to live within my means. Which means spending no more than $2,292 a month.
I have been getting some job interviews, so we'll see if I'm employed again next month!
