Nowhere close to my goal of $2000, but if you subtract the big insurance payment, it's not too bad.

How about those groceries, huh!

I've started tracking extra income, but that spreadsheet is on my laptop. It's small -- I remember I got a $3 payment from Pinecone, and something else -- can't remember.

I did finally get my seat belt fixed last night and they charged me only $25. That's a $100 discount! It's nice that when they mess up, they make it good somehow.

- Just realized I left out Entertainment, which I believe was around $30 (that, too, is on my laptop!)

    Unbelievable, huh? And I've been eating well! But soon the freezer and pantry will be emptied out.
