(As in The Importance of Being Earnest) I use Quick Books to track our spending and report it for our counseling businesses and rental properties. And I began entering our family spending too, but got overloaded with accounts to reconcile (three properties; two businesses; my personal; our emergency fund; our account for periodic spending, such as Christmas, weddings, etc.). But I think I'd better get back on it. I like to know where the money is going. It makes it easier - and makes us more accountable - when we can see it clearly in black and white (or red and white) in front of us.Jodyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08317800783744949570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8114632241605817287.post-5345210364859710722010-02-08T14:57:12.539-07:002010-02-08T14:57:12.539-07:00I hate budgeting, haven't done it in months, b...I hate budgeting, haven't done it in months, but this blog and their tips seem reasonable, thanks for the tip!Christinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06399418806969203506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8114632241605817287.post-41106836545040297382010-02-08T15:24:05.271-07:002010-02-08T15:24:05.271-07:00Wow!

We feel like we've made good decisions with our money, but we've never been really good at budgeting and sticking to a strict budget. Let us know how it goes!! You and Dave seem so happy. Yay! And don't worry about the veil. So much was going on that I never got around to calling you or meeting up before we moved. Just give it to someone else that could use it!Lorihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08893863023976839399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8114632241605817287.post-3739405111052576392010-02-08T18:03:52.501-07:002010-02-08T18:03:52.501-07:00I'm so glad you've found it useful!
