Back In The Game

Well, I am finally beginning step 2 of the PLAN!

I began tracking my spending again yesterday, just so I can be sure that my new budget stays on track.
Here is my estimate for October:

cable	50
phone	125
ccs	275
B loan	250
A loan	100
rent	475
electric	50
save	50
A loan	200
total	1575

Those should all pretty much be on point. The 'b loan' and 'a loan' are both people that I OWE. One is the ex and one is the current partner! AWESOME.

Right now, I owe the current partner A quite a bit of money ($4000) as I have made a lot of necessary purchases with A's credit.

The ex B, is owed for a purchase made when we were together. I've split the cost with her, so it ends up with me paying around $1100.

Here are extra expenses (and bills included)I have budgeted for:

bus fare		60
eating out		80
bills		1575
parking		45
entertainment		100
savings		50
school		100
gas		40
household/groceries		150
total		2200

My bi-weekly checks from work equal up to $2100. I still have some additional cutting and saving to do.
Fortunately I do a fair amount of freelance ( accepting work now!) so thats always good for a couple hundred extra each money.

In other news, I QUIT SMOKING!!!!!
