Busy… but Good
This past week has been amazingly busy for me. Work has been full of planning meetings as we are moving towards a conversion of our custom software to a new programming language and from a actual application to a web based function. In addition, my own company is preparing to leave for our trade show a week from tomorrow, so we’ve got brochures to finish a booth that just got done and is being packed for shipping as well as our final draft of the patent application that just got filed today.
With all that going on, I just haven’t had much time to get in here and write any posts this week. I have been working on our budget some and we have been doing really well at cutting back on our spending again. We just filled the car up with gas last night. It had been 13 days since our last fill-up and we bought less than 9 gallons and paid less that $18 (it was $2.179 per gallon). Of course, as we were on our way back home, we saw it for 2 cents cheaper a few blocks from our house! It always seems to work that way.
I did a quick look at our net worth coming up on the end of the month and while our debts will be down again this month, our assets are down even more thanks almost entirely to the stock market. Still no worries, we actually have some money back in the savings account now and I start teaching a new class next week and will have some extra paychecks the next 3 months.
Hope you all have a nice Halloween. Hopefully next week won’t be quite so busy, but don’t count on it!
