I'm such an idiot!!! I got all worked up for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!

I did some googling, and found out that the question about discharged/forgiven loans is being asked because starting this tax year, they are no longer taxable by the federal government, but they are still taxable by the state of MA, so it is a general question so the state can make sure it can get all the money they can. It had nothing to do with ME.

As for my tax forms, I had an epiphany last night... the loan people said they sent out those tax forms in 2012 and 2013. So, they were probably for tax years 2011 and 2012, and that's why there was nothing on my 2013 return. They were. I paid taxes in 2011 and 2012. I checked everywhere, and I paid federal and state taxes on ALL of my loans, so I don't have to worry about this bull s- anymore!!!

Now I can just finish up this year's taxes using the very easy H&R Block software, and we can get our modest refunds

I am out of it tho...
I went grocery shopping yesterday, and the cashier happened to mention something about St. Patrick's Day being on Sunday. I had no idea. I paid for my groceries and had to go back and buy corned beef and all the trimmings.

I've been in my own little world cleaning, making phone calls, and sticking my nose in my filing cabinet, so I'm in a time warp. I don't even know what month it is. St. Patrick's Day is usually a BIG deal for me, and I pre-order my corned beef from the butcher shop. At least she reminded me, and I didn't have to take another trip to the store later.

I made a list of our expenses last night (I had Corey check it over), and we can afford a new car as long as the monthly payment is within the range I'm comfortable with. I don't want to feel squeezed. The plan last night was to go to the dealership today. They're having a huge blow out, and are supposed to be giving cars away... we'll see if they actually are.
Corey said he wants to go early, but he's still in bed. He got super-drunk last night.
