We got notice of our May gas bill and it's $26.62 less than I had set aside in the budget, so that amount can go toward the tax bill goal.

Gas bill budget surplus: $26.62

Actual deficit: $8,818.85
Projected deficit w/ future money in: $319.24

Although we've been experiencing all positive progress recently, I see some nonbudgeted expenses coming up that will cut into that progress. I need to sign our kids up for another session of swim classes (our older kid is finally moving up a level after being stuck for quite some time, so I don't want to miss the next one!), and kindergarten yearbook order forms are here. (I adored my yearbooks as a kid and think my kids will as well.) But on the whole, we're doing a good job avoiding extra expenditures.
