And I made up a budget to track every single thing, what comes in and what goes out. And it works! I mean, if you have to type up on the computer to Mr. Excel that you spent eighty hundred dollars on yarn and shoes, ya'll know. You can cut back in appropriate areas.

Bob gave me some money to hold for him, and today he called and said he wanted me to write a check to pay off part of his Visa bill, and he said, "Is that okay?" I said, "Why wouldn't it be okay?" and he said, "Well, maybe you already spent it on other stuff." I laughed, and said, "Yes! I spent it all on yarn and shoes!"
