Junie Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 No kidding. I can't decide what to panic about first - dd14's birthday, Christmas presents that need to be made, Advent calendar that needs to be made, finding dd19's highschool transcript, or using my ebags coupon before it expires. :willy_nilly: First you reminded me that I needed to go to Hobby Lobby. Now you're reminding me that I need to print and send ds17's transcript. I just had google do a calculation for me: 3,837 days until dd7 graduates! :hurray: :svengo: :w00t: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I’m back from church. It went fine. The kids did their work most of the time and then I gave them the last half hour and the older kids played card games and the little kids colored and I taught them to cut out snowflakes. It’s just that I wanted to be home. I’m just a big baby, I know. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 So does anyone remember how I ordered the instructor guides for anatomy and physiology? One came but the other one didn’t. And I can’t find an email for the order anywhere. And forget ordering another. That was the last one available and I can’t find any others for sake anywhere.

Susan in TN Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I found, scanned, and emailed dd19's transcript (for car insurance discount) and edited a Christmas violin solo. We have to leave in an hour for cello lesson and orchestra class. Hobby Lobby will have to wait until tomorrow after I go to Aldi.

Southern Ivy Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I watched the last episode of Godless. Now I'm traumatized. Headache is almost gone, though. :) I just saw that on Netflix. Is it good? Do I dare start it? I just started Stranger Things because my sister said it was ok - that I could handle it. (I originally thought it was more horror/scary stuff than it is.)

KrissiK Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I am very frustrated right now. I do the budgeting on an Excel spreadsheet. I am quite anal about it, it is very detailed and we do very few transactions with cash, which means there is a paper trail for everything we spend, either on the credit card (which we pay off every month) or my checkbook. But for some reason, I keep coming up short. I have $ allotted for everything.... I mean, it is a budget. Like they say to do, and yes, I'm sure there is a margin of error in there, but I don't see why it would be that big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I think the problem is this... every month I put $ into savings for non-budgeted purchases/expenses, i.e. the $1,000 repair on my car in September, having to buy a new washing machine, etc. And I don't always take that $ back out of savings to pay for it. Sometimes I do have enough in checking to cover it, but then I end up falling short, since our budget is very tight, every penny accounted for. I keep telling myself that I need to be more diligent about doing that, but I don't. And then I get frustrated. I hate $$. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like they say to do, and yes, I'm sure there is a margin of error in there, but I don't see why it would be that big. One of your cells/rows/columns is not included in the calculation? Did you add lines to the bottom after creating the spreadsheet? Check that ranges of the numbers being pulled. Inserting lines in the middle will include those lines in the range. Insert a line after the range, and the range would have to be manually adjusted. Make a copy of the file and then re-do all the calculating cells and see if you get a new number.
