March was a good income month but also a large expense month (see spreadsheet screenshot).
Our total income in March was $8,629.58 (remember, I am not currently working). In addition to my wife’s paychecks, she received an $800 auto allowance and a $228 company reimbursement for internet service and parking. We also received $250 in preschool reimbursement, $20 selling items on Craigslist, and earned $4.82 in interest income from our online savings account.
In March, we spent a total of $9,375.20 (more than we made). We went overboard this month in many areas, mostly in groceries and household items.
Next month should be a kinda sorta more of the same, although we need to get our expenses below our income.
