Slacker.

No excuses. Well, maybe just a few. Last week my mother came into town and wedding stuff took over - we went dress shopping. So after being stitched up so tight I could not breathe for four hours a day, I was a little tired and my brain was deprived of enough oxygen that posting was put on the back burner.

October wound up being a pretty good month. We stayed (more or less) within budget, and we managed to reduce our debt a little bit. I wish it was more, but we had spent $700 on auctions for the antique store and eBay in September. So basically, we finally paid that back, and are now getting ahead. 

Look at the progress bar to the right… 10% paid off!!!

We put a 50% off sale on the Antique store, and we’ve sold about $150 worth of stuff out of it. The way we have everything priced, that should probably help us at least break even; on some pieces, we’ll still have some profit at least.

Also, we finally had a big month from Squidoo.  Broke the $100 barrier!  So from Squidoo and CJ, we’ve probably earned about $300 this month so far, which is basically a full week of me working at the restaurant.

This week was pretty good, over $500 in income coming in from all the sources.  Things are finally seeming to get ahead.  Feels good.
