Today is dedicated to some nice unexpected expenses we weren’t planning on.  Mrs. Debtbeater had the luxury of being given an all-expense-paid vacation to the grandparents house across the country with the new baby.  However, I still had to get her to the airport which is a half-day event…and a killer to the gas budget.  Basically, we have another $70 spent as a result of this trip that we never intended on spending.  Just when we thought we were making progress - BAM - a nice little reminder to let you know how much you forget to plan ahead for.

This gives a little heads up to some other expenses unaccounted for this week that’ll happen because of the "free" vacation, but I’ll mention those as they happen.  Time to start shuffling the plan around and make room for it in the budget though!

Today’s Progress:

• Earned - $0
• Spent - $74 (gas & snacks)
• Debt Reduced -$0
