Re: Tuesday check in
My rant for this morning is that my husband decided that a name that he had crossed off his list for our boy is now back on it. I was very relieved when he decided against it. Hopefully if he insists on it, it will just be a middle name.
My biggest monthly expenses mortgage, and my second biggest is food.
However, I'm getting lots of cuddles. So I'm enjoying that.
Overall not a bad morning so far. Just a little sleepy from the loud storm that went through with tornado warnings last night.

My biggest expense each month? Car payments (over paying to get it done with) and then student loans.

so far, feeling pretty good. I slept good last night other than the usual getting up to pee a whole bunch of times. I have a rant/rave all in one! I have to go to see my neurosurgeon to have him look at my incision on thursday. that's the sucky part. I now have a 4 day weekend! that's the YAY part!
so gas may still be the second biggest, but thanks to my smart shopping, it's not as bad. 
What's your biggest monthly expense? And your second-biggest? Biggest would be mortgage. Second was gas until recently. I have been really working on getting gas points from the grocery store and now dh gets at least a dollar off some of his fill ups. He drives an older explorer and it gets horrible mileage. He was spending over $100.00 a week. Now he probably spends about $70 a week.

I am STILL tired. I woke up last night to the worst back pain. It was making EVERYTHING hurt. Then I had nightmares the after I finally fell back to sleep.

So. Damn. Tired. A couple of days ago, sleeping comfortable became impossible. I'm on day 2 of a crappy night's sleep and I'm STRUGGLING. To add to that, I also got a charley horse cramp in my right calf yesterday morning and woke up this morning with such a resulting sore calf that it hurts to walk. Calgon, take me away...
What's your biggest monthly expense? And your second-biggest?
Mortgage and grocery are probably neck and neck.
Biggest monthly expense: RENT. Second biggest: food probably. It all goes on the credit card for points, and then we pay it off monthly so it seems like we have big credit card bills, but it's a combination of food/gas/little things that add up.
What's your biggest monthly expense? And your second-biggest? Currently, mortgage is 1st, then followed by food. Soon, the second place will be day care. It is really sad that the day care will be almost as expensive as our mortgage!

My cough is sticking around and my sore throat is back. Damn.
NBR (and if you are eating, please stop here), but we have this foster cat who had kittens almost 5 weeks ago now. On top of that, two of her kittens have soft spots and extra fluid on the brain and one has a swollen nose that looks like a clown nose and we don't know why. Of course I would end up with the odd cases... Anyway, we're giving antibiotics to both mom and kits, plus feeding the little ones since mom can't nurse in her condition. Well, we got them all taken care of last night and wrapped mama cat up in cabbage (yes, cabbage) to help her heal and put them in separate rooms. Woke up this morning mama cat had pulled the cabbage wrap up, eaten half the leaf, and then proceeded to "clean" the abcess. All. Night. I won't go into detail, but ew. Just ew. She's back at the shelter today to see if they need to do anything or if it's just going to look like shit for a while. And by golly, we're getting a cone so she doesn't make it worse!

Not exactly sure which is more, but the top two are definitely student loans and the house.
