I can proudly (which may be part of the problem) say with God’s grace and wisdom my husband and I are making great progress in reducing our debt and tightening up our spending.
Each year for the several years we have sat down and figured out what we would do with our income tax return each of us having a list and then comparing it and coming to an agreement. The past few years have led to more responsible things like eliminating debt, major vehicle repairs and the like.
In January I spent three or four days mulling around ideas in my head on what the best use of our tax refund would be. Some fun stuff, some necessary expenditures and some debt reduction. A good mix for Brad to take care of a few things he wanted to do and I had peace of mind that we were working on debt. It seemed like a good plan.
Brad greed with the ideas and so it was settled.
Then along came God.
He said to me “Let him buy it. He needs to make the decision.”
