Goal 2009 Update #15

September 1 house payment preliminary: It has been a less than satisfactory month in the out-go category. We are having an unusually hot, dry summer with its attendant electric ($311) and water ($200+) bills but the kicker was JMM's truck with 160,000+ miles on it had to be in the shop for $780 work. So that is $1300 that won't be going on the mortgage. It is annoying but such is life--we still have jobs and good health and will be able to knock it down about $4000. I'll post again after I know the exact amount for September.
