I got my info for my taxes today, and for some reason, I had it stuck in my head for no true reason that I was getting refunded $4000.....I'm getting refunded significantly less, and I am surprised, but I guess it's just that I had this notion that didn't come true...I'll live....I just had these dreams of grandeour to pay a credit card off, but

Think positive LB, at least you don't have to 'pay' taxes.

Its frustrating when you are expecting something and then things change last minute. Sorry to hear that. BUT at least you are getting some back. What are you going to do with your refund? Efund? Debt?


Either way, keep plugging along. I feel like 2010 is going to be a great year for all of us!

littlesbigs- i know what that's like- mentally assigning money to debt and then discovering that it's not there. it is sad, but as pp pointed out, at least it's a refund. just think of how bummed you'd be if you had to pay taxes! put what you can towards debt and then run on. eventually you will be able to get off the treadmill. :)

hope a good nights sleep has put you in a better mood about it. have a great day!

No fair making me jealous!


Our office is a bit of a mess right now, well the entire house is, but let's not go there too.


And the weekends I thought I would have to organize this winter have gone out the window:


- My mom and dad's hospitalization


- DH's grandma's hospitalization


- business trips


- DD college tour trips


and yes, we are taking a vacation.


So again, I have no weekends to clean!!!!
