Now that I am back home, I'm keeping spending to a minimum. I peeked at my Discover card online and I see that I racked up $1711 what with the conference/vacation expenses and all. I expect to be reimbursed for about $980, so that's not TOOO bad. I just hope the reimbursement will come before the Discover bill is due. I think it will.
I bought lunch at Subway yesterday for $6.50. I wouldn't have gone out at all, but my boss asked me. We had work issues to talk about. Many work issues, which are ongoing and hard to figure out. Sometimes I really wonder if I'm going to make it to age 66 on this job. It's very technologically oriented, and I am having a harder and harder time keeping up with the technology. When I started in this field, it was more of a research/analytical job. Now it's all data and statistics and metrics. Ugh.
Tonight I have to go to Wal-Mart to fill a prescription and get cat food. I'll forestall the rest of my grocery shopping till the weekend. There isn't a lot I have to get, and I'll try to keep it down.
Two more weeks till pay day, so I just need to keep stretching.
Keeping the spending down
