My budget looks pretty much like everyone else’s: a mortgage, utilities, car, and food. Of course I always put dollars aside for surprises. I write everything down, but it’s not etched in stone, and I’m not one of those really good budgeters that categorizes everything, like pets. So putting memories in my budget is definitely foreign to me. But after my trip to the UK for my 40th birthday, I have decided that memories in my budget are as important as food. Not as important as chocolate though. 🙂
