  1. Thank you for sharing all this with us, I think you work all this very well and set a great example for all around you! Things would never work that well in our household even though we don't have children...my mom is worse on money habits around here than kids would be for us, LOL!

  2. Thanks Rebecca! I find that it's easier to be more accountable with my money when I have to write it down like this. :)
