September was a normal income month and a high expense (click on spreadsheet below).
Our total income for September was $8,065.98. In addition to our regular paychecks, my wife received a $25 company reimbursement. We also received $50.00 in credit card cash back rewards, $275.00 in gifts to our sons 529 Plan, and we earned $3.64 in interest income from our online savings account.
In September, we spent a total of $8,362.84, higher than we should have spent, but less than we’ve spent almost every month this year. Some of the random large expenses were: $345.77 went to repainting the inside of our home, $489.08 in pool supplies, $432.35 SDG&E, and a few hundred towards our son’s 1st birthday party.
Next month (October) should be a very good income month because I receive a third “extra” paycheck. Hopefully we can tighten our belts and spend less…
