Budget Feb 1-14th

This budget included the last payment for Reuben's cognitive brain development which was a relief. It also included a large credit card payment and our credit card is back to baseline...which is nice. We should have money going forward if we are careful and not idiots. 

I want to start making early payments for Becky's cognitive brain development so we don't get blindsided again. Also I need to start saving for our raw milk payment that comes up in April and Becky's piano that comes in May. We are so blessed to do so many things! God is good


We were blessed to go to Target. Becky had a gift card from her birthday and picked out this baby and some shorts and bought gummy snacks. It was a fun experience! She has named the baby Emily after some deliberation between Mia or Emily, Emily has stuck. 

Feb 1-7


This week the budget was $1,167.
  • Pandora subscription $13
  • Brian Phone $35
  • Internet $20
  • Trash pick up $32
  • Tithe
  • Becky new coat $14
  • Credit Card Payment $403
  • Walmart groceries $176
  • SD card for Reuben's Switch $22
This left $205 to roll over into the next week.

Feb 8-14


This week the budget was $1,362. 
  • Piano Reuben for Feb $120
  • Tithe
  • Credit Card Payment $600
  • Azure $417
  • Poshmark $39
This left $136 in our budget and I knew that wasn't enough because we had Reuben's last payment of cognitive brain development...so we pulled money out of savings. Which we did last budget and I said I wasn't going to do it this time...but we did. Next few paychecks we will pay back that money. But that is what savings are for. I pulled out $1000 to cover these expenses.
  • Cog Brain Development $428
  • Kroger 50
  • Kinship Roasters $13
  • Cava $61
  • Our Fathers Farm $55
  • Subset $79
  • Health Nut Nutrition $49
  • The Muse $43
  • Homeopathic Consultation $180
This left $42 to roll into the next budget, but I just put it in our savings account when Brian was paid. What a fortnight! Happy Valentines Day! I got some candy for the kids from Azure and I'm so excited to give it to them tomorrow.
