In November, we had a great income month but also a high expense month due to the holidays and home maintenance. 

Our total income in November was $19,408.05.  In addition to my wife’s regular paychecks, she received a quarterly bonus of $14,784 gross ($9,708.06 net). My wife also received $227.47 in company reimbursements for internet.  We received $334.00 in child tax credits from the IRS and earned $551.89 in interest income from our savings accounts and stablecoins.

This month, our expenses totaled $14,341.44.  Large expenses included $4,219 for home maintenance (new fence), $1,787 for our tithe, and $545.75 for medical costs/prescriptions.

Next month we have a family Christmas vacation scheduled so our expenses may be even higher.
