Got's to be mo' careful!

There is a Bible verse that talks about how money sprouts wings and flies away towards heaven. I'm pretty sure I know EXACTLY what that means. I FINALLY got my check from the blog I write for. $300 smackaroos. And what do I have left? $19.51.

Yeah. I know. What in the ham sammich did I do with it? I have absolutely NO clue! Y'all this isn't good AT ALL! My bills are paid (at least), but that money was supposed to a) be for Christmas presents or b) pay down debt. And I've done neither. Let's look at my bank account and figure this mess out:

Initial deposit: $280 ($20 for cash)
-$17.00 (gas)
-$20.00 (money borrowed from Big Brother cuz I was too lazy to go to the ATM)
-$16.00 (Boy scout popcorn) (technically this should have been covered by funds in my account before the check)
-$5.00 (Parking)
-$102.27 (check for my guy's HOAs) (again, this should've been covered b/c he put the money in my account the day I wrote the check)
-$5.93 (Lunch)
- $12.23 (lunch at new trendy spot)
-$44.84 (gift for Boss Lady (I'll get $29.88 back from co-workers b/c we split it))
-$97.15 (Cable)
-$12.00 (parking)
-$7.54 (lunch)
-$12.00 (parking)

*** My spending totals more than $300, but my roomie also gave me her half of the bills and I had a check from my part-time deposited within the last week for another $175.00.

Umm... yeah. My unnecessary spending is out of CONTROL and needs to be fixed. Like, yesterday.

True confession: I did a "no, no" and dipped into my Fit Fund to tide me over until my check came in. THAT should've been my first clue that I was overspending. Well, my check has come and gone and I STILL haven't replinished my fund.... I get paid Tuesday and priority numero uno is to replenish my Fit Fund (it's coming out of my spending budget since I SPENT it).
