July Financial Goals

Review of June:

• Start Jaimie as my sitter. She will be using my food here so my groceries may go up because at daycare, they got meals covered. It will be good though. Daycare costs remain the same.---Going well my son loves it, it's worth a little extra money
  


• I will be going to St. Louis again. So, that's an expense, but hopefully no more than $200 for the 5 days.---spent more than that (don't have an exact number but it was fun!!)
  


• I have copays tomorrow and possibly eyeglasses to pay for :(---all is ok, no glasses, copays are done.
  


• I did a summer shopping spree in may, so NO clothes this month!--I think I bought a $12 hoodie, but that was it.
  


• split $1000 between house fund $265, emergency fund $265, Roth IRA that I will be opening 5/08 $450, $20 Zak---done!
  


• keep shopping at the farmer's markets and cheap stores---doing well
  

On to July:

• Bachelorette party in Put in Bay this month. So I expect a nice expense from that.


• Wedding as well. I am going to buy them something from Bed Bath and Beyond, as well as something for another friend's shower in august. We're in the wedding and I haven't bought zak's tux yet...
  


• Cookout expenses, between food, water balloons and stuff i expect a nice one there
