May was a somewhat unusual spending month for me. My biggest expense was:
Gifts - $278 - Two graduations and a check to my son to help with his moving expenses. I also bought a wireless mouse for my cousin.
I spent $217 on equipment -- mostly computer repair and a USB card.
I spent $214 on medical/health -- had a tooth filled, and visited the doc.
I spent $190 on vet/pet supplies -- Frontline Plus, kitty litter, new cat pan, cool padded cat house, cat food etc.
$104 on vacation -- mostly food, and the one tank of gas I used to go from Indiana to Chicago.
$56 -- car repair/maintenance. Oil change and a fancy car wash.
$42 -- gas
$35 -- clothing. Bras and shoes.
$26 -- fees/services. Mostly for AAA.
$18 -- entertainment. Netflix, art supplies.
$3 -- eating out. Just one run to McDonald's.
$2 -- miscellaneous.
Grand total -- $1206
I have started out June by paying that $645 bill for the colonoscopy. I talked to the insurance company (twice) and the GE Center, but neither will agree to a reduction. I guess I can console myself that I won't have to do it again for ten more years!
