    Hi Debra, great BWM! Everything is still going up and up! Its def hard to make as much happen with the same income, even minor home repairs. I hope your month goes according to plan or even better!

    Hi Debra, our car insurance increased $42 dollars. Food and gas is crazy here in California. Great budget 😊😊

    I know every time you turn around something else is being increased in price. It’s exhausting.

    Hi!! Here watching while I take care of Matthew. Love the goals you have set for May! I’d love to add walking/steps to my goals! You’re correct, it doesn’t take much to add some walking, even if just around the house. My husband bought me The Pocket Bible Devotional for Women! It’s beautiful and keeps me reading a little each day! No, I don’t think car insurance prices will go down, not any time soon! 😂 Yay again for reaching 1500! Great budget breakdown! Hope you’re having a wonderful day! 🌸💜🌸

    Hey Debra! Love your goals for May! Yes having credit card debt is the worst especially when it’s in more than one card. Amazing amount going to your sinking funds and savings! Great breakdown my friend ❤ 15:04

    Good morning Debra, I absolutely love all your goals. Everything is increasing in price so it’s gotten more difficult to save and avoid debt. I’m trying but it’s getting harder. I too want to start reading my Bible regularly because I haven’t been doing it as often as I should. Great budget with me #community

    Love your May goals, Debra! Especially #6! I’m working through the OT, too. I find it harder to read than the NT, so it’s taking me a while. Oooh refinancing the loan? I’m intrigued 👀 Boo to the car insurance increase 😫 Nice work on the debt payments and investing! 🎉

    Hi Debra 💜 great goal setting for the month. Gas prices just like everything else has increased 😅 hoping the go down like you said in the summer. I also categorize the money I use for saving challenges under sinking funds since that is where the money is really going…it’s not actually being “saved” but used as an extension of my wallet. My long term savings is what I consider my actual savings. Wonderful budget breakdown!

    Could you have taken the $900 tax bill out of your savings challenges instead of credit card use? My taxes were higher for 2023 also.

    I am planning to get a reimbursement from the state and use that money to pay off this debt. I am hoping I get the funds this month. Thanks for your feedback! 🥰
