So, Mur got her first check today, and she had promised she would pay me 1/3 of it for watching the Bug while she worked. Now, granted, that's not a lot under most cases, because if she's making $9 an hour, I get $3, which isn't minimum wage. Of course, she's making like $11 before taxes, which probably comes out to less than $9 once they get done.
Anyway, the payday for me was delayed. She owes me. They had car insurance and gas and stuff they had to get, as well as the fact she needed to get a pair of steel toed boots for work. So that ate her whole paycheck right there.
In theory I get paid this week's out of Dig's paycheck next Friday and then she pays me again that same Friday, so I should have a chunk of cash for the first time in a while. It will be nice, since we have so many back bills to catch up on. Like owing my mother for the fence we had to replace. And the dents in our credit cards from having to buy things and pay for things. But Dig's first check might take care of some of that.
Then again, my hubby might be digging us into a deeper and deeper hole. He keeps telling them not to worry to much, since they have to get caught up. Hello love, we have to get caught up too. But he says it will be fine, so I suppose I will believe him. I'm still planning on stashing some cash on the off chance he's wrong. Because my gut tells me, he's missing something big and we're going to end up screwed because of it.
Anyway, the good of it is they are getting paychecks, so we can all start climbing out of the hole we're in. Got to love that!
