    Got a nice bonus this year so we're finally paying off some credit card debt that we incurred paying for our daughter's ICU stay, start-up costs from moving into a house, and getting screwed on selling my wife's car (she was an E-3 at the time she bought it, and the O-4 who sold it to her neglected to mention the frame damage that didn't show up on the CarFax report, so we lost $6500 on trade-in - I swear to God I'll beat his *** if I ever see him again).

    Hoping to pick up a new set of tires and rims in the next month or so... can't wait to post pics!

    No pickies...yet, but part of my tax refund is paying for new summer shoes and a timing belt/water pump swap.

    I am not getting a refund, so I get to go further in debt.
    That which does not kill me only makes me stronger.

    My refund is my yearly race trip/vacation funding. First part of it will pay for my trip to Coronado this weekend for Superfrog and then a trip to Vegas in November for Silverman....



    ....and hopefully enough to get me to Moab!

    X 2 and no bonus from work...but no more debt either.

    Even so still taking my family on a Summer cruise...my wife is graduating with her Masters in Education and it's our 30th anniversary.

    Really blessed to have them...
