Where we went over budget

We had to put our van in the shop again.  It seems we need to make a bigger allotment for vehicle repairs now that ours are getting up there in miles.  It will only get worse from here.  And we're not done with repairs yet.  We decided to get the air conditioning serviced while it was in the shop anyway, so that number will go up.
