January, February and March were are tough months. January one life insurance and six month payment to our Medical Clinic; February one insurance and one birthday party, March two insurances and one birthday party. The best part, the Mortgage dropped in March.

Birthday parties at home we are done for this year. It’s my 40th birthday this year but as usual there will be only a small birthday cake just for the view and that’s it. Insurances will repeat in June, July and September and sometimes I feel I need a POS system to control all these payments.

Vacation will be more a homecation (as usual), I don’t even know if we will have money to go away just for a couple of days.

The truth is I want to go away for at least a week to have a real vacation, but I know we don’t have money for that and having a swimming pool at home and the beach 15 minutes away I can say I’m very fortunate, so no complaining from me. I hope the weather will be great and the wind goes blow another place else.

Regarding the staying on the budget issue, we will keep trying.
