I am seriously getting it together today. After months of deliberation, I finally caved and signed on to have all of my bills paid online. I also paid my current bills, and found I have plenty of money left over for my upcoming road trip to Disney World. PLUS I finally called my somewhat-lower-interest credit card people to ask them if I can transfer my balance from my super-high-interest credit card to them. It's pending approval, but at least I made it as far as asking, which for me is a huge step.

Of course, my wonderful landlady (a.k.a. my mom) has generously let me skip my rent payment this month so I'll have money for the trip, which is a big help. I'll try to pay double next month anyway, though. Also, the vet called yesterday and said something about putting Fizgig in traction if he doesn't improve, which, trip or no trip, will call for a rather sizeable loan from the Bank of Mom. I hope it doesn't have to happen, besides being expensive it will be extremely unpleasant for everyone involved, most especially for the dog. He does appear to be improving, though. He's walking on the leg when I take him out. He still picks it up when he runs, though; but as long as nobody messes with it, he sure doesn't act like he's in any pain.
