Tracking my finances in July: day 22

Posted by LuLuGal | July 23, 2007 .

Welcome to my daily tracking of income and expenses for the month.

Penny.GIFIncome for the day: $0.00

Expenses for the day: $0.00

Income for the month to date: $1050.39

Expenses for the month to date: $596.26

Net effect: -$454.13

I am back from spending two weeks out of town with Honey. I am not working right now so we thought it would be a good idea for me to spend some time in his apartment. That way I could shut down everything here and save a little on the general electricity that I would be using on a daily basis. I left my computer at home so I just got to update all of my figures in Money as I got back today.

So far my income looks good but that is not really my money here. Plus I have a whole bunch of bills coming up at the end of the month. Right now I am working on getting a new job and when that comes through then I will have to add to the debt because I will have to deal with moving costs. Well I don’t mind adding to my debt if it means it is for moving because of the new job because I will be able to pay it off as soon as that pay check comes in. Pray for me y’all!!!

Breakdown of some of my spending for the month:

Credit Card
finance charge 54.32 54.32

Food
Total Food 10.00 10.00

Insurance
Automobile 61.87 61.87

Personal
Total Personal 86.11 86.11

I know that I wanted to keep my food budget low and so far I have only spent $10 on food…but then I spent the last two weeks eating everything in Honey’s apartment. Then when I got back I found some tomatoes that I had left in the refrigerator. I had to throw them out because they were spoiled….what a waste. This wraps up my financial report for today………stay tuned for the month end report.

    Under your credit card, you have finance charge. Does this just mean that you charged something new or does it mean that you have $54 in finance charges to pay?

    Oh the $54 was the total finance charges from all the cards I carry a balance on. Ouch!
