June in Review

June the official start of Summer!   I love the hot weather and am really enjoying my summer break. June was a good month and July should be even better. We have several trips coming up and a whole month of no work or at least school work. Summer is here!

Emergency Fund- Goal is $1000- $300. This is a struggle for me.  It seems we make a step forward and then several steps back. We are at least moving in the right direction but I am hopefully to be back to $500 which is where we started the year.

Groceries- Goal $820 per month.  We spent $1084.93 I had anticipated that our grocery budget would remain high this month. I am trying to stock both the pantries and the freezers so that does mean higher cost. I would like to keep it lower than $900 for July but we shall see.

Gas- Goal is $500. June total is $336.76. This does not include the HUGE expense of new tires for my car. I am anticipating a higher total for July as we have 2 road trips planned.

Blogging- For 2025- the goal will be 10 posts per month. This is actually post number 18 which is the most I have ever posted in a single month! Go me !

Debit- Goal is 200000 total debit for the end of the year! I am not going to discuss this but we are struggling and I am working to get a better handle on where our money is going.

Health/Exercise-I am actually weigh 191 I have finally got back into the routine of walking in the pool a couple of times a week. My weight has gone up and down so no real change this month.

Reading through the Bible this year-Today is day 181 which mean I am half way there!  I am super proud of myself and plan to continue on track. I will admit that this summer is much harder to stay on track than during the school year.
