Next step

Ok, so the next step I suppose is getting back on track. I've had a bad month... depressed, tired, general blah feeling. And I spent WAY more than I needed to. So it's time to get back on track and back on budget. We received 2 dr. bills we need to pay this month: DH's dr bill- $423.20 and DD's hospital bill- $593.46. I'm having DH call and try to set up payment plans b/c there's no way we could pay that up front without throwing it on a credit card. So, I'm hopeful, Drs and hospitals usually try to work with you.

But I've received some AWESOME news about my work/job, and I will be doing some training and helping another group of coworkers and will eventually receive a raise! /cheer! Plus, my annual review is Oct. 24th, so I'm pretty sure I'll be getting a $0.50 raise there as well. I'm so excited that management has noticed me working my butt off and acknowledged that I deserve some compensation for it all!!! Plus I'll be getting a chance to learn a TON of new things and will be the first in line for any positions opening up =D Yea! for hard work lol!

Frustrated and Tired

I'm tired. I'm tired of this stupid debt hanging on my shoulders all the time. My debt went up this month. I had to charge my stupid tuition b/c they won't give me my DANG pell grant b/c I'm enrolled less than 6 hours. Well I would have taken 6 hours if stupid NWANK wouldn't have cancelled my LAST class. I'm so frustrated with school and debt. I'm just really down right now.

So far, so good this month... Although it sucks that my DH and I have busted our butts working all the time the past 2 weeks to grab some overtime, but then of course I realize we haven't even paid our personal property taxes yet and they're due by Oct. 10... so there goes all the extra money we made... stupid taxes. But at least I decided not to just pay off the Old Navy card and have to charge them later. Yea for finally thinking ahead! lol

But I do have to mention that I had a great 21st birthday! I may have used my card for my birthday gift, but hey, you only turn 21 once lol... and now I get to hang my head in shame when I open those statements and have to post to the WIRR's why my credit cards went up this month... Geez, this is worse than screwing up at work lol
