About 4/5ths of the charges are related to me fixing my house from storm damage, but damn this month's Zync bill hurt! (At least its gives me a really high maximum balance.) Statement cut on the 9th and I paid it today. This should also help with internal limit and score.
I had that a few months ago when I had to buy new furniture for my appartment. I was mildly surprised when there was no problem swiping my AMEX for $4k at IKEA and was kinda expecting some horrible phone call and me having to split it across multiple cards.
But yeah I think it works out in the end. Now that I pushed $5.5k through my PRG in one month, when I app'd for the BCP they gave me a $7.6k CL when my only other CL was was only $3.3k. Thinking the $5.5k helped 
I hope so. I go for my 3x CLI in a couple of weeks 
Next month will be another high month as I have another 4k in repair related items I have to charge. I may them on new NFCU and let it report so I can setup high reported balance on that card. 4k/25k would still keep my UTIL in check.
4k at Ikea..... Was anything left?

Mine was $5176 on the month I got married. That was a lot of flowers and wedding stuff. The bill stung but I paid it way before the please pay by date... prob helped my internal score too!

i really need to make more money
i think ill be good with spending 1k a month but anything more for me is like wow. what am i doing here lol.
I will normally push 1k though card, at least that's what I've budgeted. The next couple months will be unusual charge amounts for me.
