It has been a spendy few months here and I feel like I'm slipping on the compulsive debting front. Fortunately, I have no credit cards, so everything has been done with cash. However, I do feel like I need to take a giant step back and stop the free flow of money around here in anticipation of paying private school tuition next year.

I also need to get better about updating the numbers over there on the left, which help hold me accountable.

I am updating the challenge number today with an addition of $8.85 from an eBay sale.

With any luck, I'll get the other numbers updated later this week as well.
