    Talking We're in the money!

    Wow! We have had a great money month. Partly due to our new spending habits, partly due to both dh and I getting a raise. Dh got $1.26 per hour raise and I got $1540 a year. Oh course we haven't seen those in our paychecks yet. We have a $1000 left after paying ALL of our bills, including the $1225 in savings. To top it off, we got a refund check from the eye specilalist who had to treat my son earlier for $170.26.
    LOL, that should do it!!!

    Wow! That's great! I'm so happy for you. I don't get another evaluation until September, and I'm thinking it won't be too good. I'll probably get a .25 raise, but hey, something is better than nothing!
