Taxplosion of awesomeness!

I am always thrilled to receive large sums of money. I am even more thrilled when most of that money just happens to have been mine in the first place and I am actually just getting it back. Ha.

Each year, after I have finished filing my taxes, I imagine I probably make a post like this in my extended enthusiasm for the tremendous financial relief looming on the horizon. It is a tremendously unburdening feeling! And even though I know I have a fairly sizable college debt laying in wait to turn things back around, about a year and a half from now, I feel fairly certain it will be my only significant debt by that point of my life. It will be so nice to have only one debt to pay!

Hard work, my friends, is what has offered me these simple, delightful moments of peace. Hard work at doing what I can to do what I should be doing. Note, this does not mean I have always succeeded in those attempts... heck, I'd be happy to say I succeeded even 50% of the time, but I have persisted in my efforts and am glad to tell the tale.

I am still not quite there, either. Just WAY closer than I was yesterday. Way closer feels way better. That's just how things work, I suppose.
