Where Did The Dough Go? #45

Welcome to another weekly edition of “Where Did The Dough Go?”. Below you can get a completely open and honest view of what we’re spending money on, how much we’re saving, investing and putting away for retirement. Please feel free to learn from our financial mistakes if at all possible, it’s way better than making them yourself. ;-)

Notes: Nothing much to say this week, aside from that I’m really missing the paychecks with overtime. :-( Of course, I should be able to not rely on overtime and just plan for our root income. It’s just so much easier to save money when the check is bigger, that just means I need to work harder to trim our expenses. I hope your week went well. :-)
