I’ve entered a nice grove on the budget front with only minor adjustments being made each month.  Looking forward to reaching my savings goals for my Emergency fund and car savings so that those funds can be redirected towards my mortgage.  On top of my day job I earned $30 from tutoring and $420 from renting one of my spare rooms to a colleague.  I’m hoping to average $30 a week tutoring until September and my housemate will be here for another two months.  It’s nice to see some alternative income coming in.
