End of the Month Wrap Up

Just a quick update for today...Our grocery bill expense for September was $197.50, which is lower than normal for us for a couple of reasons. I have not been to the grocery store as much this month as I normally have been. I only went shopping for groceries four times this month and we have eaten out more than usual this month and especially this past week since my Mother has been hospitalized. Hopefully that will come down once she is back home. Same with gas expenditures this month, which were $175.16, which is higher than normally also due to driving to the hospital all this past week. I am fortunate to have worked almost every school day in September with the exception of two days. I paid off one of my clothing store credit cards this month and have no plans to use it anytime in the near future. We have a well stocked pantry and things are looking good for us going into October.
