I think I was a little harsh on the transit workers. However, I did spend a lot more money than I should have in the three days they were on strike. Anyway, I received a Christmas bonus from my job and applied half to credit, $200 something to house fund and another half to christmas gifts for next year. The money we receive from DH's grandmother is being applied to travel and gifts. I think that was a fair arrangement. I hope to be out of debt on one card by the end of the year. DH has one card and we should be able to get rid of that by the end of the year too. We're on a roll. We've also revised our budget to reflect clothes and personal maintenance costs.

Back to work....
