I won't believe it till I see it, but there is a possibility that DH will be getting a raise of what amounts to about 10%. The reason? Offering a like salary to a potential new hire moving into the area from out of state. He and DH will have basically the same job title, and DH's bosses are being very good to him and sticking up for him, saying it wouldn't be fair to give a new hire with less experience more money than tried and true and valuable employees already working there. Like I said, I'll believe it when I see it, but if it plays out I am going to be mighty impressed with DH's supervisor, his boss and the powers that be in HR.
The car - we finally have it back. Between the bill and the rental car, we spent about $1100. Ouch.
9/1 - 9/14:
Groceries: $148.72
Dining: $64.40
Starbucks: $13.10
Total: $226.22 (about $16.16/day) Goal: $13/day or less
Hey - I just saw that my journal has over 10,000 views now. Wow.
