We had last week off of work for Spring Break. After cleaning and painting all week, I don't believe our house has ever looked so tidy! DH decided that it was time for him to make his biggest purchase ever... he bought a 55" projection Sony TV for $1800. Yes, he saved up his money for it, but it sure does hurt me to know that money is now gone.

Financially, we are hanging on alright. We are still able to pay extra on our mortgage and car loan as planned. The trip to Disney is also coming along. Today I found out that the one credit card we use actually has free SeaWorld tickets available (rewards program) so that will be nice to put toward our vacation. I usually get gift cards to restaurants but this time tickets to SeaWorld will do just fine. It's great to get the "freebies" without paying the credit card company a dime of interest!

I wish we could save more but with the vacation around the corner, that's where we are funneling our extra cash. Oh, well... gotta live a little.
