Economic Incentive Rebate

I think we are getting ours in June. Our 4th wedding anniversary is May 22nd. So Shaun and I are going to do something special. Its been a very trying 4 years for us. Lots of things have happened, almost lost our son, bad car accident, finger amputation, the list goes on... Our marriage has remained strong and we have only grown closer through it all. Now that things have calmed down, we have paid off every last ounce of debt we have, we are going to celebrate.

The rest is going to be saved for the kids, school stuff in Aug. ( my little boy is starting kindergarten:O) and to buy some camping stuff so we can spend our summer with our children, having fun and not worrying about a thing!!

Hi,

Beware the euro's - we're on the teeter totter too at the moment.:(

And they won't send me one of these payments on account of not being American or living in America - fair enough when you think about it. :P

I was on short term disability pay for about half of last year. For some reason taxes weren't taken out of it. I owe over $1k to the government. Since I owe money, I won't be getting the $300 refund...it'll come out of what I already owe. However, I'll bet I'll bet charged tax penalties on the whole amount.

aaargh! that stupid calc is telling me I won't be getting as much as I had hoped!:mad: So much for an ACTUAL engagement ring with that check!:(
eh well.....I'm sure she'll understand....

awesome If they actually transmit when they say I will have mine the beginning of may. Yay money for my new morph. Sweet. J/k I gotta do what they are hoping people aren't going to be doing... paying bills. Once I pay off a credit card or three than I will get my new morph. hehehe. Man I hate those evil cards.. :devilish:

Ugh, I'm dead last!

Teeter totter or not, the dollar is sinking like a lead balloon in comparison...I would go gold before any paper currency though.

:rofl: the euro (and just about every other monetary unit is going down too.....gold's doing great though.

personally i am going to do some work on the ol' homestead. i don't really believe in money or worldy possessions these days so i could care less. i figure if i can do some landscaping and paint my shutters then i'll be content with that $1500.

SAAAWEEEET both hubby and i will be getting ours around May 9th, lord knows with Ethan having been in the hospital again we NEED IT! for bills, snakes and maybe another rack. were getting our second rack this weekend. now i need to drag out our paperwork and see what were going to be able to collect.


thanks joanna for posting this!
