We received the proofs for my son's senior pictures. I had no idea they would be so expensive! The package we need is $379!! Unbelievable! I about when into shock when I saw that. I think my heart quit beating for a minute. I definately didn't plan on that for my budget. They fortunately have a payment plan where you can break it up into 3 payments, which will make it a little bit easier to swallow.
The exterminator came this morning to give me an estimate on getting rid of the fleas. $139. That includes the initial treatment plus a follow up 10 days later to get the eggs that hatched. That price is alot better than I though it would be. But I still didn't have that worked into my budget either. So I have had to make some changes to the budget.
Due to the changes, I am thinking about cashing in my vacation time. I need it to make ends meet next Friday. It would be an extra $650, which is almost exactly how much I am short. The second job idea is looking better and better. I think my parents are going to help me out some next month as well. They are already taking my DD to the dermatoligist(?) to get a wart removed. We have tried the over the counter stuff and it just came back. It is a wierd wart in that it is shaped like a mushroom and keeps getting caught on her clothes. So I don't know how much they will have left to help me. But I refuse to stress about it. That just leads to anxiety and I already have enough of that.
My sister gave me her treadmill. It a commercial treadmill that weighs like 300#. It took 4 teenage boys and taking it apart to get it in the house. It is currently parked in the living room where I think it is going to stay. I have walked on it every day since we got it. I built up to 30 minutes last night. It would be easier if I could see the tv, but unfortunately I can't see over the console! I might end up moving the tv so I can see it. Then I might want to walk longer. I am not walking very fast, but I have to build up my tolerance. At least I am walking. It was a mile yesterday.
We have poker run this weekend to benefit my dd cheerleading. I hope we make lots of money! I could sure use it toward the payment that is due on the 15th of July. Right now it is $335 due. I don't know if my sisters will be able to contribute or not. That is almost exactly how much I am short for the 20th of July. I have already told dd she has to contribute to it this month.

Personally, I wouldn't buy them. I would just refuse.
