Kumiko Love Instagram – I created my May budget so I can be prepared ahead of time for the new month. FYI: If you copy and paste the same budget from month to month, it will never work. Your budget should vary, especially regarding variable spending, depending on what’s happening in your life.  I am using some of my vacation savings for May, and I will transfer some money from our joint account. I am also using some of my vacation savings to cover some of our travel so Chris can play in a baseball tournament at the end of the month. I create a budget every time I am paid, which is currently once a month. I also make my budget BEFORE getting my paycheck, so I have a plan before receiving the money! Who else has finished their first budget for May? #thebudgetmom #budgetbypaycheckworkbook #budgetbypaycheckmethod #budgetbypaycheck #budgetwithme #budget #budgettips
