2k....and that's okay.
Got a letter from the irs that I owe $2, 000 from an oversight on a previous tax return. The claim is legit. Ang just had $1, 000 of work done on her car, and we're paying two mortgages at the moment (which, hey, there's a bid on the house! Hopefully it'll go through!)
All of this would have broken me in half three years ago. I'd be stressing to the point of sickness and feeling all alone financially.
But, I'm not. I calked the irs, got a two month extension, juggled some savings and things, and bam, done. I can now finiah eating my greek yogurt and not feel guilty that I havr fresh veggies and quality lean cuts of meat to eat today.
I am constantly astounded/shocked/enlightened at the quality of life difference that having two hard-working, fiscally responsible people involved in a relationship can make.
Finances aren't the only factor that is involved in relationships, but for me personally, it became the core of a very unhealthy relationship, ao I am learning and growing and sometimes my "ah HA!" moments are in relation to that.
But morale of the story is that it's okay. I'm okay. I can handle life now. That feels really good. And safe.
