goodie time.


so we've filed my taxes and found that because we redid our roof last year I was able to get a teeny (well, who am I kidding) DOUBLE the amount back in returns this year. That is excellente, mostly cause I'm hoping to quit my waitressing jobs sooner than later AND there are a few things on our wedding Wish List that we may be able to get now.
LIKE:
- iPod & Speakers this would be useful during the dinner. We can avoid having the added cost of using the sites sound system.
- iPad obviously it's new and SUPER fricking cool. That's all I have for now and J says that's close, but just not a good enough reason to invest. I am brainstorming more concrete reasoning.

SO because of the anticipation of getting this somewhat large amount of money back within the next 30 days, naturally I'm having a hard time not spending my face off right now. Even the latest VS book almost KILLED me! I must keep the spending locked-up. If we play this right...I might actually be able to cut back to only ONE full-time job (wouldn't I be the lucky one), all house projects may get finished this summer AND an actual savings could be started. You know, one of those 'real' savings that is actually used to save, not just a rest stop for the money you'll soon be spending!
