    Default I just found $240.00!!!

    I had stashed it away to pay the taxes, and I was going to deposit it, but never did. I was thinking my bank account was looking a little slim!

    So today, I cashed my check at work to get groceries, and then I went to stash the cash until I can deposit it Monday, and VOILA! There was the $240.00!!!

    I'm so thrilled, I can't see straight, especially since I just had to pay off that telephone bill. I'm going to use half of it to catch up on the water bill, and the rest to save toward the insurance payment in February.

    WOO HOOOOOO!!!!!

    You know, I had a great day at work today, and I just felt like it was my day. After everything that's happened lately, I deserve a good day.

    That is great. I always like to find money in pockets and other places that I forgot I left it.
