October Expenses

Thank Goodness it's November, October was the expense month from hell. We started the month thinking large expenses were behind us so we added a few solar panels to the boat. Good Idea, bad month to do it. Under boat repair I show we spent $69, that's the repair cost alone. If I combine the real cost, 8 days in the Marina, 6 happy hour nights and taxi fair the cost becomes $69 plus $365 or $434. We also had to repair the starter. The repair cost was zero as we did it ourselves but related costs were $471 canal delay and $42.50 in taxi charges, or $513.50. So our $69 repair expense had a significant trickle down effect.

$1380 ---Boat upgrade - (Solar $1200 and fenders) 69-------Boat repair 269-----Taxi 1048----Food 212-----Booze 196-----Restaurants 531-----Canal - ($609 was paid in Oct.)- $531 (Delay charge and lines) 260-----Marina 487-----Shopping and shipping - ( Mola's, shoes, package to states, snorkel gear) 190-----Fuel - (dinghy, generator, boat) 13------Internet

4645 - Total

The good news is if we don't spend anything in November or December we will be back on track.

Life is good on Kokomo
