All right, so here's the story. A year and a half ago, I get divorced and I remarried,

and my husband now and I are trying to get situated and basically rebuild our lives

and get our finances all in order. And right now,

we can put it down on paper and, like, create a budget and stick to it, but it still seems

somehow that we're overdrafting our accounts at least twice a month. You wrote out a budget that

causes you to overdraft? If you're sticking to, if you're sticking to your plan,

your plan was to overdraft? It wasn't my plan to overdraft, but I think you're not sticking to your

plan. I think we might have our budget off. I think you're not sticking to your plan. Yeah, who's not

sticking to their plan? Unless you wrote out a plan that says i want to overdraft intentionally you are obviously not

executing the plan is that fair yeah yes okay so you're not sticking to the plan why not things

like pop up that we weren't aware of and things like that and I think that's where

we're getting what pizza no honestly we go out to eat once a week okay like what what popped up

um well I had to get a lawyer to um end up getting custody of my children from my ex.

When did that pop up?

That just popped up recently within the past couple of months.

Okay.

And how much was that?

$3,000.

Okay.

What else has popped up?

I don't think we're paying attention to exactly like all the subscriptions that we have and things like that.
