Well, we made it to Spokane
There are some hard money battles ahead of us. Namely paying rent and car insurance for the next month or so.
So, here's my current budget, and what it's going to look like for a long while.
Rent: 1922
CarIns: 225
Discover: 140
Discover: 55
Visa: 35
Visa: 100
Affirm: 118
Affirm: 24
Affirm: 35
PayPal: 45
Aspire: 100
CareCredit: 30
AmEx: 45

2874
Now, on top of this, Dad wants me to take over the car payment. That's... not going to happen until I get some cards paid off. Because I still have meds to pay for and a few other things. Now, according to my calculations, I'll be pulling down about $1004, every two weeks. That leaves about $870 that I cannot pay. So, it's time to get creative and start busting my ass again. I'm going to be writing again, soon, and will be selling crafts I think. If I can start selling things, I should be okay.
I don't mind doing crafts for money, just I'm never sure how much to charge. So, that'll be a thing I do too.
Money is going to be a Thing for a while, and while I'm not sure that it'll get better, since I have a friend who has gone above and beyond friendship and let me borrow almost $6k.
I'm going to be sticking to this budget like glue, because when Uncle's estate comes through, I can pay off everything and then maybe (?) start saving for a house/a car. Oh yeah I sold my car under the understanding that I'd get to drive/use Dad's. He's pitching a fit about it, so.... Yeah, carless again! YAY!
But, I'm working from home, so it's not that dire a situation, and Sam will let me drive his car, so I'm not completely stuck.
Anyway. Budgets suck, I hate money and need to work my ass off soon, to start getting some extra income in. Ugh
