I keep trying to figure out how to squeeze our expenses even smaller. Unfortunately the highest ticket items are things like medical insurance and car insurance and car payments. I can’t change those without making major priority shifts which affect the whole family. I suppose a second car is a luxury, but giving up the beetle would feel like failure to us all. And we aren’t failing. We are continueing to meet necessary expenses and will continue to do so through March. The balances in the accounts seem a little thin right now, but that is because we’re due for our next contracted payment. So, I need to stop staring at numbers and go enjoy the fact that Howard is at home.

How many months are left on the loan for the Turboschlock, out of curiosity?
46 months left. The Van will be paid off in November.
Well, November’s not so far off, at least. So that’ll help some. 🙂
Have faith, honey. I still feel really good about this.
Besides, what you pulled off in December was nothing short of miraculous (what with the attendant miracles and all), so I think we simply keep doing all we can do, and pray for the Lord to splice those ends together.

I’m really glad that my gaps of faith are plugged with yours and vice versa.
