		<description>I've also been thinking about the whole "carry over" idea from one month's budget to the next.  

For example, we have a "Pet Care" category that we budget $100/month in.  If we don't utilize the entire amount in a certain month, we will carry it over to the next month.  

When we travel during the summer we kennel the dogs and that can cost us an arm and a leg.  We figure that if we do this properly, we can use the money that has accumulated in the "Pet Care" fund for our kennel expenses instead of using our "Travel Savings."

Budgeting has not been easy.  

I'm still amazed at your snowflaking amount :)  That's awesome!

Here's to a financially successful 2008 *cheers*</description>
