A Fresh Start

August 6th, 2007 at 02:24 am

DH and I spent two hours sitting at the kitchen table and "doing the money". We listed everything outstanding, the dates they are due, and then used the calendar. We started at the end of the month and worked our way backwards to August 3rd. Actually, this is how we planned our wedding; we set the dates and worked backwards with the calendar to find out what had to be done when. I don't know why, but it seems to work better for us. Maybe because the date/decision is already set and then we have to make it work?
It was pretty dismal, and we were in the kitchen because it required endless cups of tea, not to mention Advil. However, we did it, instead of putting it off, and now we have a fair picture of what's coming.
It looks as if we might make it through August and with a little manipulation, be up-to-date on the bills by the middle of September.
