Short term (we’re talking a month here)-

Are as follows:

1.  Save $500 after paying off debt

How I did it: ___ Going to put in $200 this paycheck, ___ $300 next paycheck.

2.  Stop eating out

How I did it:  (7.22.08) I spent a whole night finding recipies on the internet, and throughout all my cooking magazines and got reasonably priced food items, and low item recipies to cook over the weekend to last me through the week.  I bought disposable tupperware for Bear so he could take things to work for lunch.  Update?
