My ultra spendy week

November 19th, 2008 at 01:30 am

This is turning into a very expensive week for me. The good news is that I didn't have to buy pants for E. Her best friend couldn't go to the concert so she let E. wear her brand new pants. They were one size too big but I "hemmed" them with some safety pins!

However,

I learned today I need to come up with $125 for pay to play fees for my daughters. They are both cheering for basketball. Ugh! Not the cheering part but the pay to play...and by Friday!! Luckily I get paid but this is going to throw me off a little.

The next expense is my hair appt. on Thursday. That is going to be around $75. Now, I know that sounds horrible but I am getting it cut and highlighted which I only do 3 times per year. If anyone could see my hair right now they would definitely agree I need it cut!

The third expense is smaller but an expense nonetheless. They girls have a dermatologist appt. and that is a total of $10 for the deductible. ($5 each) And the Dr. will most likely prescribe some kind of magic cream/lotion so that will be another $20-$40.

So, that is how my week is going. Probably $250 spent by Friday. $100 will have to come out of savings and the rest will come out of my pay on Friday.

I work 11-7 the night before Thanksgiving. (wednesday going into thursday) and I will get double time. Plus this is an EXTRA shift for me. So, December will be a pretty good month.

I'm off to work in a few hours...might have to take a nap!

    You had planned for this week so it wasn't that big of a shock to your budget. Doesn't it feel good to have the "extra" for something that comes up?

    Looks like you're looking ahead and planning expenses, even though they seem unexpected. Good work with your daughter's pants, LOL.
