Whew

My day turned around just after I posted that entry. Things got much better. I got much more careful. There is still one computer problem that I could not get fixed but I decided to save it for Monday.

I got home early. I go in earlier on Fridays and so get out earlier. I tossed a coin... do taxes or more purging?

Taxes won. I just had to know how much trouble I was in financially. And... I can officially say, WHEW! I have enough money to pay my taxes and my 1st quarter estimated taxes AND still pay for my condo makeover - or at least most of it - without having to cash any investments in or borrowing.

Yahoo! I've been very strict with my budget since I started this contracting gig. Every month, I put the check into savings and then put the minimum I need to live on into checking. I've only had to dip into savings a couple of times. Mostly I've been good and now it has paid off. Go me.

So tonight I am taking the night off. TV and knitting and reading. Tomorrow it's back at the project.
