Understood.
I copy over all the previous months budget amounts and tweak it to match the current paycheck, if it's different. And frankly don't care too much if it's a few dollars off.
I do this in a spreadsheet. I had written an app for budgeting but it was too much hassle keeping it up to date. New versions of Mac OS would break it in subtle ways and wasn't worth the effort of all the bug fixes.
