October Budget

We went over again this month for the 3rd time this year.  Here is the breakdown...

Food:  Over by $82
Fixed Income:  Broke even
Entertainment: Over by $200
Extra: Over by $480
Household: Over by $350

We spent $205 more than Victor's monthly salary.  Thankfully, during the month of October he gets 3 paychecks so all but $200 of the 3rd paycheck went into our savings/project fund.
