Not including mortgage and taxes:

LIPA -- $216/mo. (this will go up during the summer with the CAC)
water -- approx. $40 every 2 months
Verizon -- (internet, phone & cable) $150/mo.
oil -- we pay by delivery but I would guestimate $200+/mo.
ADT -- (for alarm) $37.78/mo.

All for me, DH and DS.

And that's about it, not including the mammoth mortgage payment...which really makes me crazy because it wouldn't be mammoth if our taxes weren't so flipping high!Chat Icon
