Taxes

Ok so I had everything done on our taxes except for our account with my grandfather which is an investment account.

I know that we actually did make money but since we didn't pull I figured it wouldn't be much.

He said they probably wouldn't send out the sheet until late next week and I honestly hate waiting on shit that I can control.

So he gave me some numbers that were probably over what it is just to be careful. He used to work for the IRS and let me tell you they are idiots who lose company vehicles and money ALL THE TIME! So he said well if you do get audited and they ask you where you came up with that number just tell them that you guessed and they'll say well you shouldn't do that...and then you say well I did and it was pretty close wasn't it...and then they'll say yes...hahaha

Anyways so with Federal and State combined we're getting back exactly 4 G's baby! Why am I so happy that this is 1k less then last year you ask?!

Because Mr. B made about 17k less this year then last but we only got back 1k less in a refund meaning we kept more of our money throughout the year and we're still getting a nice little bonus in the end. yessssss

Yes I would've loved for it to be 5k because that would mean an extra 1k in savings but we'll still be good.

We're going to pay off the Best Buy card which I think is like 850ish if I'm correct.

Then Mr. B gets a new sports jacket, I get new black riding boots, and we need a new router and house phone.

Then I think we're going to get a Wii and a Blue Ray player and the rest will go into savings.

Oh and we'll buy a damn battery for my Escort so we can sell that damn thing!



oh oh oh and I made reservations for Commander's Palace for when we're in New Orleans in a couple of weeks. I'm beyond thrilled that Mr. B and I will go to a really fancy restaurant because we haven't done that just us two since my oh I think 23rd birthday. That's over 2 years!

I'm so excited and I got a text saying that the Feds and State accepted our return whoot.

  1. AWESOME! I'm PRAYING that we get a good return this year, since we made a lot less than we did in 2008, hoping your good luck rubs off on me!
