 everyone and welcome back to Norris Cove. Today we're going to be doing our paycheck to paycheck weekly check-in from me and if that's something that you'd be interested in stay tuned. Okay you all so this is last week April 4th through the 10th and we're just going to do our quick review because I don't want to do it last I like to do it early. Okay so we estimated or projected in hair to make 750 we did 890 nails we projected 60 we made 80 in Norris Cove we projected 50 and we did 3150 we projected that total would be a 60 and we end up having $1,001.50. Now I'm gonna tell y'all something that went wrong okay you will say okay you'll see that you did really good you should have been able to pay your bills which was total 486 plus put money to Barclays and Citibank and your savings and T-Mobile and all that great stuff right get your sister a card okay a gift card or something and you should be able to pay extra oh all right right well I don't know what happened I'm telling you what I think happened let's just go down the list first so we did give credit $150 we did Shopify ended up being $61.35 and I kept wondering why they didn't come out like on the third because the money was in the account so this really wasn't supposed to be in there actually I'm going to mark that up but I didn't end up paying it but the money was already in the account y'all I had $61 in there okay so sure I should cover it I was missing $0.35 so I happened to go over to Shopify and look so they didn't cash it because it was 35 cents short so I just went ahead and paid it put the $0.35 seven and paid it okay okay next up was Canva Canva came out booth went to $50 I did put $50 I put well here it is $51.86 to Barclays um I didn't do Citibank um T-Mobile I did give them $50 so what I like about um T-Mobile I was going to save the money good thing I just went ahead and sent it over so that'll reduce my bills about time between first come I should have the other half you know what I mean so didn't do savings well I did I put $50 that's why you see a green and a red line through here I put $50 the savings but at the end of the week I had saved my tips for two weeks and I'm like yeah I have cashed off me money now no I don't that was my card note money which won't get into which is this week so what I did was I took 200 out of my savings to put into my checking account to cover my card note now I'm like okay I could go back and just take all my money out of cash left for envelopes and put that because that was pretty much my card note money even my eating out food all that was my card note when I kept saying I've been on point what's going on so now my savings has declined but what I think I'm going to do if the week turns out really good is just put it back into my savings so let's hop right into this week okay so yeah that's a lot so I was wondering like why don't I have any money like where is my money okay so this week well is this gray here and also I kind of always forget but you can find these inserts in my shop um www.NorrisCove.com and what I like about this is minimalist for me I like minimal stuff but for those who need color like my girl Sharlene you can take markers and you can just highlight this whole strip here you can just add color stickers whatever you want to do to it to spruce it up okay let's get into this week this is April the 11th through the 17th hair nails and Norris Cove and I haven't put miscellaneous in a while but I'm putting miscellaneous just in case we're just going to do zero but no let's do our 750 and then I have to go out of town like I take my daughter's dog back and my birthday is on the 23rd so I think I'm going to take the dog back on the 24th and come back that's maybe Tuesday so I need to put some money aside for that nails I don't project any nails this week because I'm not really taking people and the few that I did came last week so that's why we made so much last week I am doing new releases this week you never can tell because people may not like stuff so I'm gonna stick with my 50 here on Norris Cove and that brings us to 800 dollars all right let's see what is due this week I'm gonna flip to my calendar and this is my monthly calendar so we are on the 11th through the 17th so already we have car notes here we have I did give a little small amount of money from Shopify Capital One and then City Bank so first up will be car note and they didn't take my car note out this is car notes number one and I had it set up to come out so I'm just going to have to go in and manually pay it I think it's 181.63 and then the 15th we have Capital One I've already paid them for this month but I'm gonna go ahead and give them something else I'm gonna do 50 to continue to knock that down and then the 16th booth rent which is 250 and then the 17th is City Bank um City Bank I'm doing 15 now for my entrepreneurs I need them out just a little bit and for myself so as you can see I have Barclays due here on Monday I do work Monday I can pay it um but I want to save money from this week to pay it because I'll schedule my bills so like I'll schedule City Bank it's not going to come out until next week I can schedule Barclays so I here's what I can do um this is how like knowing how your bills come out knowing your budget knowing what you get paid or like here on Monday is when I have like a guarantee three people I know these three people are coming unless they got COVID or sick and we haven't had the issue in a couple months so I can wait till Monday and I can pay I can go ahead and schedule this which is City Bank but I know it's not coming out until probably Tuesday I can do Barclays it's not coming out to Wednesday so I could take this money to cover those but then we have T-Mobile coming so why not these being small pay them put the money aside this week for these two we got car note number two coming out you know so we basically got to take part of this to pay for that this makes sense so um yeah so let's put some of our money for next week aside and that kind of keeps us ahead on our bills oh wow I just happened to look next week so birthday so then we got birthday things I'm not treating myself but I got my T-Mobile I have my car note and then I have Barclays so I want to put the money for these two I'll put Barclays on this week and then hopefully part of my car note so that way I could take part of this to cover my car note you know half of my car note and then the rest of T-Mobile that makes sense okay I hope so so that's the way how you can just got to know what you're working with and we know that generally during the week I make about 750 800 whatever but things can always change like I work here Wednesday I know I work on I work no this Wednesday I work this Wednesday so that'll help cover this capital one I can actually go ahead and pay city bank today and that way it's coming out of my account by Thursday but nonetheless let's just do what we do so let's go ahead and add Barclays I'm gonna put them down as a 17th and then we want to have get car number one here I think we'll be okay with car number two on 18th but we definitely want Barclays and that we need to give them 100 and then T-Mobile I'm moving T-Mobile here just for to have half of it and I put them on the 17th as well and I think we need about 160 dollars and I know what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna do 100 to them and then the rest will come up next week I've already given them 50 so let's do a little math I'll push in this have 131 dollars and 63 cents we're pushing it okay we're pushing it now this is where the good thing is when you have like this savings won't get any money with 731 dollars so here's where the good thing come in especially for my entrepreneurs or anyone who's paying attention now we know that Barclays is not going to come out this week we know that city bank isn't coming out this week so that frees up that 150 dollars if we did not make 800 okay so if we didn't make it we'd go on to the next week but I don't want to do that I really want to have this money set aside so in the notes here this is what I need to remind myself to do eat out less plus we're supposed to be losing some weight so I'm supposed to be making smoothies every day all that great stuff so to save some money we're going to eat out less make our smooth smoothies make lunch smoothies so that we can have this less miscellaneous spending that'd be my issue because when I go back and look at my spending tracker it's a lot of miscellaneous and it's a lot of food my two categories okay so and I just thought of something else that really kind of blows my budget oh so no planner spend I was doing good but then when I got my taxes I just went crazy and then after that I just thought I was rich or something that I could just keep buying this buying stuff like I was about to buy a new plan knowing good and where I didn't need it okay so that's it you guys we're going to pop this back on in yeah I'll just scratch you off excuse the ashes okay um yeah let's go on pop it on and then next week I'll have this week's review for you this is it playing simple this week no cash envelopes this week now what I will do I think I like the idea of saving my tips so I'm going to try to save my tips this week see what we have and I'll be honest with you guys I'm thinking cash envelope stuff and it's not going to work for me only because I spent my car not money trying to stuff cash envelopes and I think I do it because I know you guys like but I'm more of a digital cash envelope person so I'm going to do digital cash envelopes but I do like cash stuff and so um yeah I may do it every two weeks and not just every week so that way um this is let me know where paycheck to paycheck is so that way I won't be in a bind or make sure that I have it or take away from and just not overdo it you know if that makes sense like I just don't want to be stuffing money and then having to take it out that makes no sense to me so we're going to figure it out and we're going to figure it out together so this is what we have for next week this is the income we're anticipating but as you all see we kind of do more so let's just hope for more and I have a goal every week I say am I um a six I'm going to flip to my salon schedule every week I set a $1,200 goal oh I took out the rest of them and then this is you know make notes to myself of what I've done for the month so when I go to do April let me show you when I go to do my end of April budget I've already made a note of what the first and the second was so in two days I made like 415 so um yeah when I tell you money isn't every planner every planner you have to keep your eye on your money because if not you will you see what happened I wasn't paying attention I didn't refer I need to start referring to this what I'm paying my bills and just coming downstairs until my budget planner and see what I'm paying because I should not have not had my car note okay so that's it you guys I hope you all enjoyed today's um paycheck to paycheck
