Tax Season, Mailroom and Packages, OH MY
What do most people do with their money they get back from taxes?...I honestly want to know...I know on average about 95% say they put it into savings, but do they really???...I said that I was going to put some into savings but now am thinking of cutting that amount in half to buy a new TV :-)...So I am just wondering if I am the only one who says they are going to put it in savings and then changes their mind...We already have a nice chunk in savings and it is not like we NEED the money, but I am afraid I will feel so guilty if I do not put that money in savings...Aggg...Who knows what I will do...What is new this week?...The mail people suck at their job...You would think that they would get on the ball and put out mail when it comes...Instead they are slow and we are just now getting mail that was mailed to us 2 weeks ago...I am still waiting on packages to get to me...All of Emilie and I's summer clothes...It just makes no sense to me when we ordered the Wii Fit last week and got it this week, yet we ordered all those clothes and they were shipped January 24th and we have yet to see them...Let me tell you there will be hell raised if Petes PacSun order gets here before my stuff!...I am turning 29 on Monday...Wow...This will be my last year in my 20's...It is so crazy to think back the last 9 years and see where I have come from and what I have become...I never thought I would be married, with a child and living in Germany...I do know I always wanted those things and would not trade them for anything in the world...Ok, well except Germany...I hate this place...I keep trying to have an open mind and when I came back in December I told myself I would make things different...NOTHING has changed...I still sit at home, Pete still works all the time...He submitted his packages for K-9 and CATM so hopefully we hear some good news about that...We are not sure if they would send him to school and then a new base or make him finish his tour here first and then go to school...I am hoping they will send him now and try to send him to another base...With my luck though, it will not happen...Ok well I have babbled long enough...I will write again soon!...More than likely on my birthday because that is when my munchkin goes in for her 2 year check-up!~~ME

We put a little bit in saving and than spend the rest with Matthew getting out in 1 yr and half we are putting a lot more into savings. I think if you put some in savings it is better to than to blow it all. Have fun we always do lol.
Don't get me started on the mail room! We get ours at the right time but yesterday i had 4 slips and she gave Curtis 3 packages.... he said something and she told him no it was 3.. he made her go look at the stack of papers... she then said oh i did not see that one! How hard is it? She has one of the easiest freakin jobs in the military-
And i am sure a lot of people just spend their money. We put at least $1000 in there just to build it up. That way we have more for a down payment on a car when we move back or our house even though with a VA loan you don't need a down payment. It is your money... do what you want with it girl!!
So we bought a TV!...We gt a super good deal on a 50" plasma and did it...I am still putting some into savings, just not as much as I hoped...I get a refund check from school next month and I told Pete that I will be putting all of that into savings for our trip home...So Blah!!...The TV won!...You only live once Eh?
That is true girl! You can't take your money with when you die! Even my preacher back home use to say that!! : ) But that was probably said for different reasons but hey... enjoy your tv lady!!
