So far this month I have increased savings by more than the budgeted amount and I am so close to hitting the next hundred dollar mark! I'm not sure how much more I'll have to put into savings this month as a few un-expected expenses have come up. We'll have to see how my checking account balance looks at the end of the month.
As I shared last week, it is not reflected above, but when I paid my March mortgage payment, I paid $372.15 toward my escrow shortage. For more explanation on the shortage, see here.
My BFF and her hubby are planning on coming out for a visit next weekend, so I am trying to be conservative with my money. I am hoping to find some fun things to do that don't cost much that weekend. I'll keep you posted about that.
I don't think there's anything else surprising in the budget above. If you notice anything or have questions, don't hesitate to comment :)
