Actually, Not to Bad

So today was not nearly as scary as I thought it was going to be. You see, I missed paying bills two weeks ago, which would have covered everything due the end of September. We went on vacation instead. See we have problems. Anyway, today was really not bad. We will still be tight for the next two weeks, but we are caught up with all of our bills, and now the only thing we are playing catch up with is tithing from weeks we were out of town, and checks never got mailed. I wish I could set tithing up to automatically come out and be deposited to the church. They probably won't ever do that though, cause someone might pay tithing with a credit card. I think now that I've paid all our bills (including those due before we get paid again, so some of October's) and entered everything into Pear Budget, I will go set up our ING direct accounts. After lots of reading, I've decided to move our primary banking to ING. I like the idea that I can create as many savings accounts as I want (and name them things like van fund, tithing, rockband-see I do love Brett), plus I can move money freely between them, and the interest rate is pretty good. Anyway, I am feeling much more positive about our finances today. Actually paying attention to them is a good thing!
