I won't starve next month

My last paycheck from Microsoft will come at the end of the month (basically paying off my remaining vacation time). I get paid by Amazon for the first time on July 1. So what about June??? Will Laurel and I have to beg for money in the streets?

Well, not if I sell one more photo this month on ShutterStock. I'm just one photo sale away from getting my second big $75 payout, which will come in June.

Although that alone won't keep us away from the poor house, we also have the good fortune of having a nearly full change jar -- perfect timing!
