Yes, there is enough left in there to pay the power, cable and cell phone. But ONLY after I drove most of the way home, pulled off the freeway so I could think extra hard and do the math. And realized I would have to run back to town and re-deposit half of what I had just withdrawn. Gahhhhhh.
The bills are paid. There is chicken for the dogs. And tuna in the cupboards for the cats if need be.
The next option to try in order to avoid this emotional trauma of losing my brain because it stutters and leaps and jerks and gets stuck on one fact or percieved fact ... is to do things in the same order each and every month, with no exceptions. Don't throw in anything new, like helping my sister who is helping me. Also, I'll reset the online bills to be paid 5 minutes after the Magic Money comes in.
The worst part is being proud of myself for doing it good this time.

Gha ... thank goodness my budget is 'Eat Ramen Noodles, don't turn on the lights' sort of arrangement!
