April 08 Budget

April's Budget




A couple of changes this month:



Car Note: I have no car note this month. My first car payment is due May 10.

Gas: I don't even wanna get into.

Medical: This month I am catching my daughter and myself up on our health check-ups. I have made appointments with the dentist to get my teeth cleaned and my daughter's examined. She will go to her pediatrician for a wellness check-up and I have an appointment with my doctor for a check-up. I need to set up an appointment with a vision center to have my eyes checked and get some new glasses and contacts. And it's time for my yearly pap smear. My budget will account for the copay for all those visits and 3 prescriptions (if needed).

Clothing: It is about that time. The Florida heat has come back and my daughter's long sleeve shirts and long jeans will not be cutting it. And I need some new blouses for church. Hence the new temporary category.


Alrighty yall. Night

Hi Dimples - no car note, awesome! Yes, it's only a 1 month reprieve, but it gives you that much more flexibility.

BTW, you've been tagged - come on over to my blog to check it out ... thanks!

It sounds like your budget is extremely well thought through. Congrats! I always forget the little things like clothing (yeah, I'm over budget by about $85 for April already)...

Home Purchase Plan - How I faired

Back in January I developed my Home Purchase Plan (HPP for short). I listed exactly what I was looking for in my new home including my needs and wants. I printed up my HPP and carried it will me everywhere. I especially took it with me when I went house hunting with my agent. I had a momentary relapse (I'll explain more on that on another post) but got back on track and stuck to my guns. I ended up with a beautiful house that fits all my needs and wants. HOME PURCHASE PLAN The home I want: Price: $0 -> $190,000 $180,000 Ideal Monthly Mortgage (including taxes, PMI, HOA, & hazard) : $1200 (max $1300) $1310 Location: Surrounding Orlando Area Check Bedrooms: 3+ 4 Bathrooms: 2+ 2 Square footage: 1700 s.f. + 1810 sf Year Built: 2000+ 1998 HOA: $100/month max $150/yr NEEDS: * A-rated school district Check * Quick access to major highways Check * Good daycare Check * Nice

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Life has been extremely busy. Trying to get used to the extra responsibilities on top of my existing overflowing list. I will try my hardest to post my do's and don'ts of buying a house tonight. Hope all is well.
