Financial fun

It's payday, and a bill payday.  Four of my monthly expenses are paid, the others are budgeted for, and I carved an impressive chunk out of my credit card.  How much goes back on during my parent's visit will depend on what we do, but I know it won't be crazy.  I called my credit card company about reducing my rates.  They only knocked a few percent off my APR, but I'm not carrying a huge balance.  In a month or so, it won't matter!
