Well, my company is lagging in promised payments to AS for her freelance work, whereas planned expenses are happening right on schedule. 
Therefore our shared spending looks pretty bad right now: $954.47 in the hole.
The extra bathroom-contractor charge was about $850, so we actually wouldn't be doing too badly if not for that. And, we have $850 in savings that I could pull if needed, but I'm going to hold off on that and see if we can just clear it up with incoming money.
If my company gets its act together, they should soon be sending AS $1748.75. If we net $1136 from that and send $500 of that to savings, it's $636 toward our deficit.
However, we do have two more expenses coming up shortly: kids' swim classes ($180) and refreshments for an alumni event I'm hosting (unknown how much we'll spend, possibly a couple hundred). If both came to $400, that would take us to about $718 in the hole.
AS is expecting another $1975 at the end of the month. She'll net $1226 and if I send $500 to savings, that gives us $726.
So if no other unexpected expenses came up, we should just barely be able to cover the shared spending deficit by the end of the month and still add some money to savings. Fingers crossed it works out this way!
Going in the hole a bit, temporarily
