It's not my immediate expenses that I'm worried about but the ones that I have coming up in just a couple of months because I have no idea how to cover them. August starts in another week and the tag on my truck is due, the front of the car is shaking something awful. I have to get that fixed and the front of the truck well that I'm told is my imagination so I really need to start driving it again.
When I drive the truck I can make a tank of gas last a month just going to therapy and back. That's pretty good considering it only gets fifteen miles to the gallon. The big problem is that my light bill is consistently over the amount set for budget billing. Right now I'm looking at having a $200 overage. That means I'll have approximately a $300 to $400 bill at least the month the overage plus the actual bill is due. I'm going to do.
At the moment I have $6 to make it until the end of the month and I wouldn't have that if I hadn't put some things on hold. Well, I'll be going I can't earn any money to help me out of this bind if I don't get to work. Today I have to take our house guest to meet her mother so she can go home and Theresa has two therapy sessions that are an hour apart so I may just take my computer so that I can work while we're there.

Broke as broke can be
Well, today is payday which would normally make me happy but not today. It's already gone before I even get it and I can't seem to make enough to make up for anything that I might have to spend. I've still got bills to pay this month and while I have the money to cover them I don't have money for anything else. I'll be starting next month in debt.
I owe $25 for babysitting which was for four hours while I ran errands thinking it would make it faster. Then I'll have to repay the money I'm going to have to borrow in order to make it until the end of the month. Next month we go back to school which means it's time to find more school clothes or at least a new pair of shoes for the little one. She'll be happy to ride to school with her friends once again. One day a week I have to go pick her up from school to get her to therapy on time but that's only one day and it won't be too hard on the budget.
I'm thinking of transferring money from my savings account to checking and leaving just enough to keep it open in the account so I can make it until I get my loan. I can always put it back later. At least that's what I like to tell myself.
