In 2013 we didn't have any of the large expenses that we had in 2010 (windows), 2011 (HVAC replacement), 2012 (new roof). But in 2010,2012, and 2013 we didn't have that large medical insurance premium because we had the option of a very low cost plan with a large deductible. For 2014 we have a low cost HDHP ACA plan, but I'm sure our deductibles will be much higher.
Our son moved out Nov 1st and we are already seeing a nice drop in the grocery and utilities categories

It's always an interesting exercise to do this at the end of the year.
