Who knew it was so hard to make a realistic, workable budget? I thought I could just sit down and do the math, but boy was I wrong. We discovered that it appears that we have not been equally dividing the bills (as far as I can tell). Doing the math, it looks like I can save around $8,000 if I stick to the budget. I had to cut out the TV provider, which allows me to also get rid of our house phone! We only had the house phone because it was required from the satellite TV provider. This is going to save right around $1000 a year!
We are going to keep every receipt to make sure we are spending money on what we need to and that we are dividing the expenses equally. Once we get the budget finalized I will post it so you can see what we are dealing with!
Just over a week to go until I need to get down to the nitty gritty!
