Setting up envelopes

My original plan was to set these envelope categories as actual accounts. Then
each week transfer the money into the KMyMoney account so it didn't show up in
my check register.  Then as I bought fuel, I would transfer from the envelope
account back into the checking account to cover that expense.  

But the software wouldn't allow my reports to show transfers since I
de-selected some of the categories.  Thus the report was useless for how we
want to budget.

I got around this problem by setting up the envelopes as categories, and each
week the money gets withdrawn so we can see how much we have at the end of each
week after the bills are paid.

Then when it comes time to pay from an envelope I will enter a withdrawal for
(Exxon - $50), and then enter a deposit (envelope, auto fuel - $50). 

Then when I run the report the next time it will show I have $125 in the auto
fuel envelope.

Basically, I'm shuffling money around so we don't overspend.
