In September, we had an incredible income month and a high expense month.

This month, our total net income was $27,192.38.  In addition to my wife’s regular paychecks, she received a quarterly bonus of $22,825 gross ($14,140.26 net) and $214.98 in company reimbursements.  We also earned $17.42 in interest income from our savings account.

This month, our expenses totaled $21,395.11.  Large, non-fixed expenses included $2,494.36 for vacation, $1,576.86 for home maintenance, and $691.97 for clothing.

Next month should be a pretty typical month in terms of income and expenses.
