Financially, October was a disaster. I lost track of my spending and had unexpected expenses. My "oh no" fund only covered a small portion. Time to reboot!
November budget:
Food $200(spent $57) balance = $143
Gas $100
Miscellaneous $50
I will try to stay under my food budget but with Thanksgiving coming, it's going to be a challenge.
I'm researching new recipes already. I may try making pies. I found a recipe for a crust that does not require a food processor that received positive reviews.
Gas - increase due to carpooling with coworker who broke his leg. We all need help now and then. The extra expense is minimal.
Made $60 babysitting yesterday. Will go toward October madness!

WW...it is good you realize you need to reboot. And, helping your friend by driving is a good thing...sometimes you can't measure the nice things by money.
