I had to laugh when you thought about decorating it in the garage to save time lol! <br />Gas has gone down a wee bit around here but still way more expensive in Canada vs U.S. (approx $4.25 per gallon!!)so there's something for you to be happy about! See? It can always be worse!! <br />Glad to see you are chipping away at your deficit. I did my account reconciliation this morning and it wasn't pretty. We had an open house party Friday night (Michael's idea) and I hadn't budgeted for it so had to transfer $400 from my emergency fund this morning to cover the extra expense. Yes, I am grateful to have an EF but right now it has $1000 in it instead of the usual $2000. I have to get my car in over the 2 week school break so crossing my fingers they don't find any problems with it. <br />It's all such a balancing act isn't it? You fill one hole in the dike and then find water trickling through in another spot! Especially at this time of the year!<br />Must remember to count my blessings :)Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02803104035204416080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809809639444040308.post-76894876552208163192012-12-14T07:05:26.401-08:002012-12-14T07:05:26.401-08:00Yeah!

Because we're also a dead end for food trucks (one way in and one way out), we get very expensive groceries, especially of the produce variety. Gas where I live vs gas where my parents live (60mi away), for whatever reason, was 30c different for over 3-4 weeks after the hurricane hit. No idea what's up with that. But they finally brought it to par (still the usual 5-10c extra).
