A wing and a prayer...

Against my better judgement (and Dave Ramsey's advice), I cleaned out my savings account at Christmas time ...not that a few hundred dollars is much savings anyway, because heaven forbid the furnace go out or one of our vehicles break down (Eddie would fix it though so I'm good, right? ...wrong.) What if something much worse happened like one of us losing our job? Or an unexpected medical problem/expense? ..a few hundred dollars wouldn't do much!

Sooo... We have been tacking our debt & just paying our regular household bills, buying groceries, gas, etc. so far this year...LIVING ON A WING & A PRAYER... Until we can get our tax refund & put back that $1000 for an emergency fund. But with that tax check we were planning to pay off a certain loan that holds a lien against my husbands motorcycle that he hasn't ridden in going on 2 years... We figure if we can pay that off, we can sell the bike for a few thousand & then pay off more debt! Then there's my braces. I still owe a few hundred on them, so I need to pay that off because now it's my daughters turn to get braces!! We hoped our tax refund check would cover everything but I wasn't holding my breath. I just hoped & prayed.

God is good!! Our check will cover the loan, the balance on my braces & fund our emergency account!!!!! It is just enough! I feel that God is looking out for us & God def works in mysterious ways. We have made it through with practically $0 to our names at most given times & we survived. I've put it in Gods hands & I know everything will be ok.
