I really hate being broke. I just finished paying bills and it sucked. Had to transfer $500 from our savings to our checking to cover everything and now we only have $350 left in savings. That's really not good. What if there is an emergency? Crap. We have to stop eating out and buying junk food and snacks at gas stations. I really think that is where a lot of our money goes. I think I'm going to add up the amount of money we spend eating out a month and see how much it is

Wow. We could have saved $400 by not eating out. That is incrediable.
Right now after paying all our bills we have $70 in the bank--and that is AFTER taking the $500 from savings. I wonder if we can make $70 last for the next 18 days. I don't think so. Maybe we'll get some money from an unknown source to cover us. I sure hope so. It doesn't make much sense to run up the credit cards because that is just spending what we don't have.
Must take it a day at a time and not look any farther than that. Each day we don't spend any money is one more day closer to next pay period...
We will be ok.
