A Great Day, In Other Words.

Yesterday morning my mother had mentioned in an email that something for a Boy Scout activity cost XXX hundred $.  I jokingly (sortof) responded, "what I WOULDNT do for $XXX."

This morning I was awakened by Southern Roommate coming in, "Hey Seg... Associate is here..."

9:30 A.M.  What kind of an unfair world is it in which a 20-something-year-old gets awakened at 9:30 AM unexpectedly, in order to DO TAXES?

;) I got over it when we concluded that Associate's tax return will be...notable. (Unlike mine...)  We submitted the taxes, and Associate's dad called to tell us: the total cost of repairs on the Old Car?  Well under what we were expecting. 

And, my parents were so wonderful to offer to help me out with repairs until my job starts and I can take care of things.

BUT, after PerfectMother told me they could do that, she told me she'd found a large (for me) sum of money in an old mutual fund of mine.  The amount brought me over the $XXX I had jokingly mentioned being willing to do about anything for.

Let's reiterate:

This morning, 9:30 am, I woke up believing Associate and I would be spending X number of $ on the car in order for me to be able to start working on Monday.
I knew I had $X in student loans needing to be paid off.
I knew I had $X in bills to pay in the next week.
I knew I did not have enough $ to meet all of those obligations.

Midnight tonight, I have more than enough to repair the car and life is just altogether great. 

I had my body fat measured. 17% body fat! 2% to go and I'll be at my new goal! I had no idea I had attained my initial goal, but I'm so excited!

We got a lot done tonight, and I found out good things.
We are both on the insurance for both cars now.
I got my parking permit.
My body fat % is 17%. I'm athletic!
My parents are helping me get my car fixed. :)
A random $XXX showed up in my bank account, an amount I believed I'd lost in the economy slump.
I drove my car--a stick--all by myself!
Associate's tax refund is going to be really good--and I helped him prepare it! Go me! ;)
God is aware of me and my needs.  That is for certain.  I needed what happened today.  And I think God knew that.

Seg=a happy girl. 

Goodnight blogosphere. :)
