Well it Happen.

We have been hit by this mess up economy!!! I was lay off on Wednesday! just 2 hrs after I posted that rumors where going around about the layoffs. We knew I would be one of the first ones to go but man I didn't realized it would be this early! we were hoping for may but it was Feb 18!! When I got home that night I fill for unemployment. So I should getting that check first of march. But we knew it was coming so we were planning on it. So we should be just fine! I'm don't think i'm going to go back to work right away. I'm planning on staying home for a while When I go back to work it will only be part time well R is in school.

Starting to Stress!

Well, roamers are starting to fly around here at our work place about layoffs! My hubby and I work at the same company. 2 weeks ago we were notified about pay cuts. That Start March 1st! To help prevent layoffs. Everyone keeps talking that layoffs are coming! I know that I'll be one of the first ones to go! I know it will not be sooo bad. We can live on my hubby income but leaves very very little for our Debt snow ball due that we just have had a pay cut big time!. Almost none at all! So we have decided to start putting everything we have into savings! Just in case i do get layoff. I'll have to find at least a part time job that can work around my DD school and her gymnastics. If this really happens this will really suck! Right now we save alot of money by us working for the same company due we Drive to/from work together so use 1/2 the gas that we use to! Save on Lunches! My husband job is safe we know that so that is one good thing. Mine is total not. I did want to be a stay at home mom again. but not until we paid off all our debt or had a 2nd child what ever came first! If I do get layoff there goes having a 2nd child because I will not have health ins anymore! So this changes everything with our Tax refund. Well not everything. We were going to take some for our selfs but not anymore we are going to put all not into the debt. So we will have a little less to worry about. Ok think enough of my Ramblings for now.

TAX Time!

I love this time of year! Means Refund. But After following Dave for little over a year now. My husband finaly change his W-4. So we will not be giving the goverment out money. So next year we will not be getting a big refund back. but we get though out the year. What a consept huh...LOL Reason why I came to post is that We are getting a nice Refund. 4595.00! Not to bad. We are also going to cash in some savings bonds that are more then 5 yrs old. So that should add another 1000.00 We do know that we are going to take about 200.00 of that just for us! Rest is going to pay off some Bills! Bills that are next in line are Medical bill thats down to 300.00 but that should be paid off before the tax refund comes in. Next is the Best Buy card. Witch is at 2231.79 Then is the chase card and that is at 2724.69. Witch still give us 438.52 left to go twards. the Discover card that is at 3467.01. So that is our 5595.00 and 2 big CC paid off! that will bring our snowball up to 450.00 a month. If murphy dosn't come to visit us before the end of the year we should have the Discover card paid off before Then! So here to hopeing Everything goes smothly
