2 Month Budget Update

Since their seemed to be so much interest when I showed a budget comparison to actual last month. I thought I would keep it going another month.

As I indicated before, most of the costs will stay static for the next year. A couple comments about the adjustable costs.

• Bus costs went down because we did not purchase the monthly passes (less travel in September)

• Overall food costs varied because of a 4 day trip to Tel-Aviv where we spent almost 60% of the monthly total. I would expect a cost drop in October and other months when we are not traveling

• Overall, the total spend dropped around 3% from the previous month and I expect a further drop in the next few months.
