The remodeling I am doing upstairs is going a bit slow. I decided to remove part of the banister and take out the old carpet. Then I can prepare the walls and ceiling so that I can paint them a different color and patch all the holes in the walls. Then I can get some carpet put in and some decent trim up there. I would also need to install some electrical outlets and maybe put in a ceiling fan. I am also thinking about buying a new bed and making the old one a guest bed of some sorts. The room next to that one upstairs has wood paneling, I would probably take it out also, but may have to move one room at a time.
I got my bank statement today, and managed to spend about 8,000 dollars last month. 1000 of that was credit card charges, but I also paid off most of my fertilizer and spray bills and bought new tires for my truck. It was an expensive month, but I still will have enough money to make the down payment on my house, pay my grad school tuition, put about three years of mortage payments in the bank and keep renovating the house. Last year I had about zero dollars by the end of september and if it wasn't for subbing, I wouldn't have been able to pay any of the bills. I finally did get some money in the bank account after I got some of the crops in in october. This year I won't be that financially poor.
