financial makeover

I did a bit of a financial makeover today. I paid off a few cards, and I calculated how much I have left to pay off on the last one, of which the bill will not come for another week. What it came down to is, I will have $54.44 left in my checking account after all is said and done. I calculated how much I'm actually making, divided that in half for deductions and rounded it. I budgeted $200 per month for gym, gas, wow, and bowling. So I will have 50 bucks left to spend per week... yay... It's not a hard number, but let's try to stick to that. I guess I'll have to log down how much I'm spending and not use my credit card unless I absolutely have to. I'll do that for a month and see where I'm at. *sigh*
