well, I've lost my upromise card!! I can't figure out where it is. I have called ahd had it frozen, because I know as soon as I cancel it I will find it. I keep monitoring the CC's site to see if anything is going on, but nothing yet.

I also cancelled the kids' savings account. They are no longer giving $5 for each Colt's win (I think they must've broke the bank last year!) instead they are giving chances to win cheapie prizes, so I decided to take that out. I am going to stick it...

Another Payday!!!!

DH got his raise a week early, so it arrived on this check instead of the next one. It's only on one of the weeks, but that is better than none.

Paid off the Upromise Card (I need to quit using this) but still have unbilled activity

I did a new budget, this one for just this paycheck. Seems like so much easier to just do it by paychecks instead of monthly, especially since we don't ever know the exact amount he'll be paid.
...

Wanted to update since tomorrow is Payday!! (this is a holiday in my house)

Van payment due -$365.08
Truck Payment due -483.36
Water Due $30


Insurance came out last time for $238 and change. They didn't charge us the 1st month on the truck for some insane reason so now we have it added in for 3 months to repay that first month. So, it will go back down a bit after 3 months - I think to $190 something.

I listed our van up for sale...

well, I just went over the bills due this time around

Citi Financial -$119
Dish Network -$48.73
Cingular $80.98
Internet $39.95
Electric $156
Insurance -not sure if they will have the new total this time or not, I am going to call tomorrow about it. It was $111.80

Then, I have to take out $240 for 1/2 of dh's payment for the truck AND I will be getting a Upromise card statement on the 8th.

Thank goodnes there are 3 paychecks...

thinking of Xmas, I might as well list how many gifts/people I've already got, using the after christmas sales from last year
