Snapped out of it...and a tax return

April 11th, 2006 at 02:11 am

Ok, I decided to 'snap out of it'....took a hot shower and finished the housework...then finished dinner (turned out really yummy....mexi food)

Now DH and DD3 are watching the country music awards. And I am just relaxing.

The tax return...well, we got $600...we decided to give $50 to DD3 to use on school clothes...she got a great report card and has been helping out alot.

$200 will go to the Freedom account for unforseen emergencies and the rest ($350) will go to our cc bill. I hate having an outstanding debt...but this was accumulated from a dental bill, a broken well bladder and 40 year old plumbing (cast iron pipes and boron don't mix well...especially after 40 years) after we pay the $350, we will still have $1500 to go...I am budgeting to have that paid off in a year.

So...easy come, easy go!

    Isn't it wild how things come out of the blue to mess up the budget. Glad to hear that the government sent you back your money and not vice a versa!

    Great job! It is a wonderful feeling not having any credit card debt!
