Do you ever get that feeling?
We have been so richly blessed. After we got off food stamps last year things have turned out wonderful! We have money where we didn't before, I amazingly have enough to give to the needy, and buy those extra books and art supply's for my kiddos. We haven't even dug into the savings much, I mean there's still money in it! Now I really hope I'm not jinksing myself. Because I constantly have that feeling. Like "Wait, I have money over... what did I forget to pay?"
I wish I could just sit back and relax about it but I get so absent minded. I went through a long period of forgetting to pay things because I didn't have the money to pay them when they were due.

Now I'm looking back, I'm not debt free and I pay more than my minimums. I know next paycheck I'm going to need a little extra unless the check is a few hundred over normal. So do I shove it all over to savings or just wait and see. I hate leaving extra money in my account because it's so easy to spend. I think I'm going to go half and half this month and see how it goes. Hopefully I won't have to pull any from savings but if so, HEY there's money in there (at least for now).
I know I'm going to be pulling anyhow because I'm determined to get our cards and credits paid off before the new year. That's about 3 grand that I don't see us making extra in the next 3 months. Oh well one day at a time.
