Not good!
My spending is definitely under control (remember, I charge ALL purchases*, so that means I only spent a few hundred on food AND entertainment this month), but my medical bills this month alone totaled about $650. Add $725 for the new mattress, and that's $1,375 on the credit card right there... and we still have way more furniture to buy.
It's not fun to see my finances slipping backward, but I have to stay positive. I am only now beginning to make real changes in my life, and my health will benefit. I have to think long-term.
*I definitely don't recommend this method unless you pay your bill in-full every month.
