Another slow month for our debt reduction. Recent medical bills/prescriptions have taken a chunk out of money that would normally go towards our debt. There are still some medical bills to come (more about that later). Just goes to show that I better start taking care of myself. We can’t afford not to!
I was really hoping to have progressed farther than we have this summer. Before we know it, we’ll have heating bills and from what I’ve heard natural gas prices are bound to go up this winter. The Farmer’s Almanac is predicting a winter that is a little warmer than normal, so I am hoping that is the case. I never really thought much of the Farmer’s Almanac until I saw my neighbor pruning his fruit tree. There was still snow on the ground, but he said the Farmer’s Almanac said to do it. They had an awesome harvest. We have the same type of fruit tree and our harvest wasn’t as great (we didn’t prune), so guess who will be pruning next year when the almanac says it is time to prune?
I’m not sure what September will bring. Historically September has always been a rough month since a few annual payments are due. We’ll see how things go.
