america saves

it's really disheartening to realize that i don't think i can come up with a savings plan to put away even one month's worth of expenses for an emergency fund in the next year. i'd like to make that a goal for december but i'm dubious since my car insurance costs went up. i think with my meager tax refund, i can pay that off without charging it to a credit card, but just barely. that pretty much leaves nothing left over, except covering monthly expenses. at the moment i'm set for not struggling by the end of the month with only a monthly paycheck, but putting a little aside would be a nice change of pace.

apparently it's also america saves week:
