The third week of my financial overhaul is upon me. I've recovered from my more despairing tone last post. After hanging out with some friends and watching Doctor Who, I feel revitalized. The weather's been kick-ass, too! Oh, it also helps to have money in my account again. This Sunday's meeting was primarily devoted to allocating these funds appropriately. Because my bills were all paid off early this month and I've had decent hours at work, I can afford two looming purchases: my next semester at Second City and my brother's bachelors party weekend in Virginia. It's a huge relief to know I can swing it and not worry about rent next month -- if my work hours don't bottom out, I'll be able to cover that too. Plus some minor bike repairs and a major food shopping run.
I have breathing room!
I also have a good lead on a job that I plan to tackle this week.
Things are looking up, my friends! I can persevere! I can do anything!
