Daily Debt Journal 12
Well, we didn’t spend anything we shouldn’t have, but a couple of setbacks happened today. For one, I spent over $100 at the pharmacy. Sure, this is health-related and I won’t hesitate to spend money here if I need to. AND it’s reimbursable through my cafeteria plan, so I’m not losing money here…it just happened when I kinda need that money to be in the bank right now.
Also, the garbage disposal went out on us in the kitchen sink. This is what some people would call a minor inconvenience, but with a family as large as ours we’ve really grown to depend on it more than one would realize. This is something that just has to be fixed in our opinion. I’ve done a little plumbing work in the past, so will take a crack at this beast of a project so we only have to pay for parts. I’m really hoping I can get by using less than $100 from the rather small emergency fund we have.
So there’s Murphy’s law at work for you. If it can happen when you don’t have the money…it will.
