You should either:
- make a "Personal Expenses" account into which personal savings
expenses go.
- go ahead and put expenses into your normal expense accounts, but
configure your reports and budgets to ignore funds coming from
your personal savings accounts (if that feature isn't available,
it should be).
gnucash is a double entry accounting system; you really need to have
both a "from" and a "to" for each of your transactions.
