At the end of May I hurt my back and my neck. Nothing major thank goodness, but enough to send me to the doctor a few times, to physical therapy and to the massage therapist. Cost to me, about $1000. One of the pets decided it would be fun to break it's leg. Seriously, the pet broke his leg. Cost to the vet for X rays, casting, meds, $500. I'm lucky that the dog did not need orthopedic surgery. My primary vet (that I am slowly losing confidence in) sent me to a specialist muttering something about pins and screws. I was having night sweats, surgery would have been a around $1,000. The specialist told me the dog could get by on a cast and lots of crate rest. Where did this money come from. My now depleted E fund.
What happens next, my boss holds a meeting to tell the staff that the business will be changing, one partner leaving, and everyone's hours cut, mine included. Actually, as I posted earlier, the office is on the brink of shutting down unless plans, B, C, D somehow come to fruition.
I knew there was a reason I never put that application in for the FHA loan.
The good news of the past month.
I have pretty much recovered from my neck and back issue, the dogs leg has healed, and while I have no
E-fund anymore, I am at least current on all my financial obligations.
I still want to spend most of my free time huddled under the pillows watching Grey's Anatomy re-runs.
More on what's happening later

that a rough month! I can't wait for Grey's to start again :)
just think of it this way, it cant get much worse!
I hope your back and neck feel better. It can be difficult to feel pain and not have the money to remedy it. Good thing you are starting to survive financially. Just maintain the momentum, step-by-step.
