June Budget

Goal: 

Save $500 of Victor's primary paycheck

How did we do this month:

Food: Under by $50
Fixed: Under by $140
Household: Over by $120
Entertainment: Over by $40
Unexpected: Over by $ 435  (Not taking V's travel expenses into account as they will be reimbursed)

Total Saved: 

$420 (yay!) of his primary pay

Where did our money go?

Gas: $300
Healthcare: $36!! :)
Unexpected Car Repair: $250!  Yuck!
This month was birthday/graduation/wedding month.  I think I bought gifts for 10 people!  I am thankful to have so many wonderful people to buy gifts for!

Victor traveled a lot this month. Some of it was for his civilian job which doesn't benefit us financially but most of it was Navy which is good from a paycheck perspective.

July will be very ,very tight as we have to inspect, repair, and register the RAV!  I anticipate that will cost us $400-500.  We will see! 

I am going to do a 6 month budget review as soon as we get unpacked from our WI trip.
