The next three months are going to SUCK financially.

Any “not shopping because of a pandemic” savings went fully out the window with the pandemic pay cut I had to take, which not only wiped out the small decrease in expenses, but any actual savings to boot.

And income tax is due next month, and property tax in August. The next time I’ll be able to put money **to** savings is September. Please lord, don’t let there be an emergency. I’m seriously considering suspending my 401K contribution until our pay is restored, which should be the end of September.

I’m just kinda fucked for cashflow and I have savings, but I am so wishing my car hadn’t crapped out to the tune of 5K in January.

I can’t even really think about moving or retirement right now – the big focus will be trying not to hemorrhage cash for the next 3 months. And getting the house clean.
