EMI got debited earlier than I expected and now I’m sitting and calculating every small expense again

EMI got debited earlier than I expected and now I’m sitting and calculating every small expense again. Enough for essentials, but rent, groceries, next instalment… all suddenly looking too close together 🙃 Client said payment is coming soon, but no exact date. I did the work on time, why am I the one adjusting everything around their timing? Also I know I should’ve kept a bigger buffer, so irritating myself only. Should I send a reminder now or wait one more day? Don’t want to sound desperate, but if they can keep me waiting they probably don’t care that this affects me.

Send the reminder now—polite and neutral, asking for the exact expected payment date. That is routine follow-up, not desperation. Was a payment date or payment term agreed in writing?
