My super duper spreadsheet has failed me. Or more accurately, I failed myself since there was quite a bit of human error involved! Bahh!
I never added in the $300 dollars a weekend that I always allow for, so when this weekend was over I tallied up in my head that we had only spent 200 or so. I was excited to transfer the rest to savings except when I pull up my bank account online and my spreadsheet there wasn't anything to move because I had actually never even had that 300 dollars to begin with! My line item for weekend didnt exist and so now it's like I lost that money! Not sure if that made sense at all to anyone, but I guarantee you that money is gone :/. So now I hope to make up for it by having a cheapy weekend this next one coming up! We'll see..
To express my frustration at this situation, I crocheted an angry evil bunny. See below. :P
On a positive note, baby girl is being a perfect angel today!
Bah! Weekend money gone!

But yeah, I really depend on my spreadsheet, so when I record something incorrectly there, it really is like I lose money when I discover it. (Or occasionally, like I "find" money, if the error happens to be in my favor. )
