Today the builder came and fixed up the air conditioning cabinet so that it’s more stable. He charged us $50. So, there’s a bit of good luck. I was afraid it was going to be several hundred to get everything sorted out — if not more, because we would have to get someone to take the entire air conditioner out and replace the board and put the air conditioner back in, but we can get away with just shoring up the existing board and sealing it with protective waterproof paint.

That gives us a bit of a break for the time being. Plus this week I spent under $100 at the grocery store and next week we have our first pick up with Angel Food which should last us for about three weeks except for the uber-perishables like milk and bread which we have to buy every week.

So, here’s hoping I can spring for my bridesmaid’s dress within the next week or so to give me time to get it altered if I have to and find shoes before the wedding in August.
