It’s Tuesday the first of May. This is the day I close out
April’s books and make the mortgage payment online. I went to the website of
the bank that has our mortgage and made the payment this morning. Now I just
have to close out April’s books and set up the books for May.
This is a long, but not complicated process because I have
checked the bank accounts everyday. Now all I have to do is make sure that the
books balance, which sometimes can be an issue. When it comes to balancing the
books, my problem is cash. I don’t keep track of cash spending the same way I keep
track of the debit card spending.
I guess that’s why I prefer to use a debit card, checks, or
a credit card because I can keep a close eye on what we (Mom and I) spend. When
it comes to counting cash, I always have less then what I think I should have. This
is frustrating and irritating and I know what causes the problem. I don’t write
down the cash that I spend or if I do write it down, I can’t find the note pad
I wrote it on.
Frustrating or not, I have to balance the books today
because if I wait a couple of days the situation will only become worse. So,
why am I composing a blog entry instead of balancing the books? That is a good
question and I’m not sure I have an answer; at least, I don’t have an answer
I’m willing to post.
