    You did indeed, but you only posted on here, and I thought you were only going to send a form in at the end of the month, so I am waiting for you to send it so I can update your total.

    I cant keep up with the posts on here, as sometimes like you have done people add to their totals so I only update the spreadsheet from the update form. Some people send me a form whenever they add funds, and some people send the form with the total at the end of the month like you do, both ways I use the update form to keep the totals correct.

    Trying to update from posts maybe easier now less people are posting but I like seeing the update forms coming in.

    Send me one of those and Ill update

    :-)

    I'm so sorry Westie. I could have sworn I sent one over. Do you want me to submit one now?

    Are you out of hospital now? I know it's a pain when they keep you in but I'm sure there's a good reason for keeping you in. Enjoy the rest for a while. Everything else will wait x

    No dont worry I have added it already to the spreadsheet, just send me one for October end of the month.

    Yes I am back at home now recovering in my own bed, and environment, things are getting there, I havent slept too well as I sleep on my front and I am not allowed till the stitches have been removed, not that i can as it hurts, but I still try during the night.

    I am enjoying recovering but not having to make my own food and drinks lol...

    **walking to the kitchen is helping so suppose thats the key.

    Hi Westie, sorry I've been absent from here... I found that budgeting with YNAB and VSPing don't really work together, as all my money is "assigned" at the beginning of the month. Sorry :(

    Thats okay,

    I use YNAB and VSP, I just allocate the payments from the bank account to the VSP when I make the payments, show the transaction the same as you do when you make the payment from one account to the other.

    I have all my regular savers and the VSP, in their own sub category and then I just take money - from one cell and move it to the VSP category.

    Have you made any transfers you want me to update?

    I'm afraid not - I've found that "giving every dollar a job" means VSPing is hard as that money is already allocated. Of course, as much of it as possible is allocated to savings! :)

    Fair enough, dont forget that every penny you have saved so far is more then not participating in this years VSP,

    So well done for your savings so far
