$9,000!?!?
Oh my goodness! Today I went to school like usual...and decided to check my campus mailbox since I had time to kill between classes. I had a letter from financial aid so I went to their office to see what it was all about. It turns out they have been underpaying both me and my husband for the past two semesters and they wanted to give all of the money we were supposed have received back to us now. I was COMPLETELY shocked when they said it would be $4,750 for me and $4,241 for Brendon...THAT'S $8,991!!!
 I feel like I just received that huge Publisher Clearing House check with all of the balloons and cameras. LoL! They say it will be deposited into our bank account tomorrow. That really made my day. Just wanted to share my good news with everyone. I think I'm still in shock!

That's like winning the lottery!!!! I'm sure that it will really help financially with you both being students.

I know, I'm so boring! lol! But owning my own home is a HUGE dream of mine and I want to get there as quickly as possible, so to me, it's all very exciting. You girls are probably thinking I should just go to the spa instead!
