It only took almost two months of fighting - but Jordan's raise has finally gone through. What is actually slightly funny; is that as much as they were bickering over $600; that actually wound up increasing Jordan's salary by another $200/year...so the difference is now $400 from what they had originally agreed on ($55K). It's was all so petty.
His take home pay is now $1,551.86 - a gross increase of $123.08 which nets us $75.62/bi-weekly to add to the budget. I would say that's a couple of months that were worth fighting for. I think we are almost ready to plan the 2014 budget...
