YEAH!!

I know it is early, but I am working on our Smith family budget. Jeff thinks I am being silly, but I need to know what we are up against and where we need to cut costs.

We are putting our deposit on our new apartment this weekend. I want to make sure we can make the rent, and have money to save. Is that just the accounting nerd in me?

I put all of our income against all of our expenses as of today. I was freaking out because of what we each spend on health insurance, car insurance and cell phones. Jeff kept reminding me that we will be combining all of those payments. I know I looked at him like a deer in headlights.

So, we pulled out his Employee Benefits book. Oh wow!! When we get married and I am on his insurance, we will be saving so much money. I can't wait to consolidate our auto insurance and our cell phones.

I love that Jeff gets such great deals through work. He is my hero!

He's my hero too...even though I won't be on the health insurance or anything like that.
