I’ve decided to make myself more accountable for my spending and start sharing to a greater detail. Boy was this the wrong month

This month I went over in terms of birthday gifts and gifts in general. I have to include these in my budget for next year. Also, I forgot to pay last month’s family cell phone bill which added up to quite a bit as well. In addition, “someone” on the plan went over the shared minutes and so we ended up with an overage of $240. They’ve been warned and told All told, I lost about $1,400 this month, but did make a big payment on my student loans.
