So we are having to replace a fence that blew over in last winters windstorm. I hated spending the money because we have a some CC debt to pay. Well today was a good day

My DH brought home a BONUS. It was the first time he has got one in 4 years of working with his company and its more then enough to do our project and still save some

To top that off and I know it isn't as much but I sold my first thing on craigs list today.

I wanted to share because I think its important to share the good news as well as the bad.
Sometimes everythings works out. I am thrilled that I won't have to charge up the home depot card this weekend.

That's awesome! I love when things work out. Things are looking up for us too! We have to replace our heat pump tomorrow, but DH just got a bunch of side work and we just got $500 from the dependent care account I have at work. All this unexpected money is coming in, so we hope to pay it off sooner than we expected!

I am happy too. There is an added bonus which is they took taxes out of his bonus and so we should be getting a bigger tax return too.
