Ledgers and budgets

As we have moved into our marriage, things have settled.

Enough that we are now able to feel like patterns are emerging.  One area of patterning is our finances.

We came together with a good sense of budgeting and the worth of  money.  For the first few months the spending patterns were a bit out of whack.  A wedding ceremony was paid for, moving costs expended and even new items for the house were bought.

These are not usual expenses. 

But now we are into a few patterns.  Life is much easier, in some senses, when you can plug a few numbers into an EXCEL spreadsheet and see some patterns. 

So, that is what is emerging.  Another day or two of inputting and analysis . . . and we shall see what we shall see!!
