Almost made it

Well, the end of April is upon us. I feel like I haven't blogged in forever, but it's actually been less than a month. MIKE hasn't blogged in forever. ;)

We made it in a couple of different ways.

1) Zack has a job now. He's getting paid for going in for orientation today, so it has officially started. Weeee!

2) We made it through the month without needing to turn the AC on. It got difficult there for a few days, but it's been cooler again. I even had a long sleeved shirt on to go to bed last night. It gets hot here, but as long as it cools down for the sleeping time, I'm okay.

3) Unless something weird happens, we'll have spent less than $120 on food this month. That's down from a budgeted $250 that people told us we'd need. Granted, we were given a lot of food this month, too, but I'm relatively certain I can keep us near or under $150 for food every month. We had to get some clothing items with that, too - a very rare extra expenditure.

4) Friday/Saturday will be our three-month anniversary. :) Friday is the date anniversary; Saturday is the week anniversary. In case you were wondering how it could be both. =)

And that is my reporting on the month of April. :)
