The Perfect Storm
I am trying to not get overwhelmed right now. We are having a perfect storm of expenses. It is two weeks until Christmas and I have bought a total of one gift for our families, have bought two gifts for one of our sons, although the other son is pretty much done except for stocking stuffers, but we are also finishing our downstairs bathroom. So in addition to Christmas shopping I need to pay a tiler, carpenter, buy a toilet, buy some fixtures, paint, and assorted other things that come up. We also need a new washer and dryer (the noise they make is unbearable) but I'm not sure if we are going to do or not. Last week I needed to buy new tires for my minivan which cost $300 and I ordered oil which ran us over $400. UNCLE!!!! I am not sure how we are going to survive the holiday season and still have food on our table. I just want to get to January. If I can ride out this storm I'm hoping to make it to safe harbor in the New Year.
