Savings Account in Sight

OK it's a bit difficult but I can see my savings account coming into sight once again. I only need $50 to reopen the account. I'm checking to see what the monthly expenses are now and just how much I would need to keep in it to cover the bills for two and three months at a time without having to worry if I was working enough. There are some items that would have to be stocked up on first. The goal is to reopen savings while making much needed repairs to be able to take a few days off a week for various household projects.

A new front door is in the works yet again. This time it'll be the one I actually want it to be. I think that I can make the one here work a little bit longer until I can come up with the money for the new one. I have to go out and price the new one and the delivery of it, and that is a must since the only thing here is a car.

There is the small matter of the loan on the car and the fact that the clutch on the truck is not functioning properly at the moment. That is added worry right now. The good news is that the weekend was pleasant enough to open the windows and leave the air off. That's going to be a big help at keeping the light bill down below an overage amount this year.

The cheapest gas in town (according to the site I check before going to buy gas) is currently $3.71 a gallon. The cheapest that I will come in contact with without going out of the way is $3.73 a gallon. The highest gas is $3.89 a gallon. Summer is not looking promising for me to get shorty to therapy five days a week. I don't know how I did it with $4 a gallon gas last year.

Well, I'll worry about gas prices later. I need to go make yet another spreadsheet and hope I don't mess up anything in this one.
