YAY! Rob and I got our taxes back and not only did we catch up on everything we were behind in, but we also paid everything a month ahead! I was SO HAPPY! He's only had 2 regular checks since Thanksgiving- lack of work was leading to shorter days and we were getting behind on things. But it's all better now, and we have emergency money left in the bank even AFTER our weekend spending spree (more about that in next paragraph).
Saturday we went to dinner and rented movies. I was SO good. I had cajun chicken and salad and 3 glasses of water with lemon. Sunday we drove to Rockford (about an hour away) and had brunch at IHOP (I had machaca, pretty low in carbs). We shopped all day, and I was so happy! Rob bought me the rest of the Stephanie Plum books I wanted and I read them already. (LOVED THEM) He also bought me DDRMAX2 (dance dance revolution game) and a dance pad for it (ON SALE! The game was 18 bucks and the pad was 20- I LOVE sales!). We took the kids to a health fair and had photo id's made of them. We bought them a movie and a few things they asked for, rollerblades and helmets and knee and elbow pads. (They used to have those things but they were lost in our house fire last year) We bought the stuff to get MY computer networked and set up so I don't have to share with Rob anymore. (THANK GOODNESS!) Rob got a computer game called Age of Mythology and a ram chip for his computer. Yesterday I rented a rug shampooer and got my carpets cleaned, bought a shelf that I wanted, some gardening supplies, some groceries, some kitchen plants (basil, oregano, thyme, garlic chives and rosemary- my kitchen smells like an Italian restaurant!), and some pet care products. We also bought stuff for the kids' Easter baskets and put some things on Layaway for Ramey's bday in May.
Life is good.
