For some unknown reason - seriously I really can’t pinpoint why - I was over in quite a few categories this month. Not by any astronomical amount or anything but still more than planned.

The only one I know the exact reason for going over was my ‘Travel items’ budget….because I bought my one way ticket to China! I guess some months life just happens and you have to take it in stride. Also gas is still over $4/gallon. Seriously looking forward to getting rid of my car pretty much exclusively for that reason.

And I made a bit extra at work this month because it was a 3 paycheck month due to the way the pay periods fell (aka the best months ever) so a little extra made its way into my travel budget.
