February was pretty good even though I wasn't able to make my goal of saving 70% after tax income. I did manage to save over 64% though and my expenses were about $200 lower than normal. It was a short month though, so I'm sure that helped.

Medical expenses actually outpaced my mortgage this month and I think that will happen again for March. Over the next 4 months I'm going on a cost cutting effort to reduce medical expenses, entertainment, gas, and food. In total this should save me about 5% which would bring me right back up to 70%. I'm also looking to increase my income by a few hundred a month.
