(Ok, get up off the floor, I'm just kidding...)<br /><br />Seriously, part of our happiness IS tied to money...not the spending of it, but in knowing that we're in a better position and will have enough if there's another layoff. While we aren't exactly wishing for a layoff, if one should happen, or if Shane misses a lot of work because of snow and ice this winter, we plan on relaxing and enjoying his time off. :)Annie Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123644833186800503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511897216767402899.post-89741420304777176552010-09-21T12:50:05.813-05:002010-09-21T12:50:05.813-05:00WoooWHooo!

If a layoff should happen again this year, we'll be able to get by on just his unemployment. With the van paid off and all the food we've been preserving, we should do just fine this winter.<br /><br />Besides, it's just nice to not have that loan anymore. <br /><br />Next on our list is fattening up our emergency fund with what used to be our van payment. :)Annie Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123644833186800503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511897216767402899.post-11775613297481345082010-09-21T08:35:09.026-05:002010-09-21T08:35:09.026-05:00Congratulations!!!
