Notes:
- We officially moved to Qc and that is the biggest expense this month! Includes mechanical inspection of our pick-up, license plate and surcharge for a pick-up truck, driver licenses, photos for health cards
- Also, our pick-up truck was due for some high maintenance (transmission oil, oil change, brakes tune-up and a radiator leak that thankfully is under warranty)
- Our XM radio is back in action, which is an expense we do not need but still nice to have satellite radio on the road
- Thankfully, March is also my most successful month as a freelance translator, so it helps offset that crazy expensive month.
