    Talking I Got It! I Got Approved!!!

    I got approved for my disability!!!!! Praise the Lord!!!!

    I still don't have the letter saying I was approved but I got a HUMONGOUS check in the mail. I'm not kidding! It is enough to pay off lots of my bills and especially pay off dh's Aunt and Uncle.

    I nearly fainted at the mail box. I started hyperventilating and had to go to my neighbors house cause she lives closer and I made her look at the check and tell me if it was as much as I thought it was and she thought so but took it to her dh and he said yes and then we just about both fainted!

    I know it is all spent but thank God, we have it to spend. Dh will keep a tight line on it for me and that is a GOOD thing.


    p.s. I splurged last night and bought a new Teflon skillet and a huge package of toilet paper. hehe It was so nice to pay ds back for all the money he loaned us while he was working last month. He says he feels rich! We also bought him a new pair of tennis shoes for $12.00 at Walmart and I got dh jeans at the thrift store, brand new for $2.00. I'm not changing my frugal ways that I've learned over the last 10 months cause this money will be gone in a flash!

    Thank you all for you love support during these hard times. You saved my sanity and kept me from going under. Even when I couldn't post, I knew you were all here for me.
