amusing

I find it absolutely hillarious at just how many people complain about how much it costs to have their taxes filed through an H&R block office. It's like they didn't know when they first went in that they were going to have to pay out the ass.

WE know it's gonna be expensive, but the fact that we can get the audit protection, and our refund is still on the rather large side because of the two girls, earned income credit, and child tax credits, we would rather leave that in someone elses hands. For us, this year at least, they could charge us around 800 dollars and we would still come home with almost 7000. That is MORE than enough for the new car we want, to pay jim for the car we already have, get my glasses replaced, and get me a new camera, and STILL have a little money left over for some other things.

We are considering paying the full year for netflix and gamefly and Ivy's Jumpstart game. That would all be less than 500 dollars, and would leave us with about 40 extra dollars a month. All in all, i think that would be worth it. And then maybe paying the full year for our car insurance, which at the moment is 61 dollars a month, so that would be another 732 bucks. SOO, that would put the total expense for ALL of that at just over 1200 dollars. If we got 7000, the new car was 3000, and the jim car is 1500, that woudl still leave us with 2500 dollars. Which means even with all that, we would still have about 1300 for my glasses and new camera. And we would have an extra 100 dollars a month. Um, yeah, that would work for me, lol. I found a new camera kit on Ebay that has the Nikon d3000 and a bunch of lenses, filters, and accessories, for less than 700 dollars. That leaves 600 for new glasses, which i've been able to find for much less than that. So i guess we will see how it works out, but i think that would all be worth it. That would still leave us quite a bit extra each month, which is kinda what we've been going for.

Right now, i need to find something to eat, straighten the house back up, and maybe play some more of my game. IDK, just need to find something to keep my mind occupied.

EDIT: Blah, i completely forgot about the new cars car insurance, lol. That means that the majority of that EXTRA money won't be extra at all. But on the up side, if Ruben can find the car for less, then maybe we can pay the car insurance for that one too and still have extra. Guess we will just see huh?
