January 26 thru 27

We haven’t spent any money the last two days, and we actually had $647 come to us!

My husband’s employer was recently investigated by the department of labor and he received a check for back wages completely out of the blue. He works as a paramedic, which means 24 hour shifts and per call pay, and apparently wages weren’t being properly calculated for quite some time, but his employer is only obligated to pay the back wages for the past year.

But we’ll take it! It’s enough to pay off a small loan we’ve been carrying for about a year.
