Not So Necessary

Hobby

Mostly knitting/crochet or soapmaking supplies; once we start selling these, will count profits against expenses

06-17

Knitpicks

12.96

Not Counting

Not counting:

• Speakeasy (internet) - business expense
• Repairs to Nick's cars - should come from Nick's income
• eating out - Nick pays for when income is sufficient, otherwise eat at home
• web hosting, domain name registration, etc. - business expenses

Notes

1. actually took out $200; remaining $140 (I think) went towards repayment of borrowing from emergency stash.

2. $72.81 for March (can't find May) -- paid bi-monthly, so 72.81/2 = 36.41
