Self Made Pickles

I’m in a pickle, I loaned out $400 a week ago.  When I was loaning out the money, I thought, “well, I’ll be over budget but I’ll just use my cc to make up for the difference”.  Dang it!  Old habits die hard.  So I will try my best to stay under budget spending as little as possible.  Currently my cc balances are $867, my checking acct balance is $1,117, which leaves me with $250 for the rest of the month.   Maya’s birthday is on the 28^th.  I guess I’ll just have her party on April 1^st.  $250 isn’t bad but when I factor in gas and groceries it leaves very little breathing room.  It’ll be hard but I can do it.  When I get that $400 back, I can put half of into my efund and half into my vacation fund.
