Minnesota's newest jobless numbers will be out Thursday and we'll see if July unemployment stays below 7 percent.
But as we wait for the new data, we want to know: Is your household feeling a recovery yet?
Take a minute and tell us how you're feeling about the economy. How will that affect your spending and saving decisions for September?
It's an odd time. The economy seems to be improving. Minnesota's June jobless rate came in at 6.8 percent. But it still didn't feel like a recovery as the state disclosed more than 14,000 Minnesotans left the workforce that month.
Answering a few general questions about your household's economic forecast will help make our economy reporting smarter.
All thoughts welcome. Post something below or use our handy form.
We'll share responses in posts next week.
