kyburgIt's great to pay off credit cards. I could look at that "Amount Owed = $0" for days.
However.
When the lender says that our FICO score dropped significantly since last fall...WTF? I'll tell you. I was late for a $16 payment on one of the cards. The one the dog spent the weekend in the hospital with last summer. I owed less than $600 on it. They suck getting statements to me. I missed one. My penalty?
I may have to come up with more of a down payment. How much is more? Can't say.
The only thing I have left is my tax payments. I was hoping not to have to make more than one, but if I have to come up with a significantly bigger down, I'll have to use those moneies to get into the house and make payments to the IRS. The state won't wait - they're so pissed I underpaid this past year, they want this years AND next year's taxes NOW. No negotiation.
I could see all the money I wanted to spend going bye-bye. No new floors. No new stove. Etc.
Barf.
I sure hope not.
Have they found Saddam's body yet? Right. Yeah. Next to the WOMD.
Hell, I'd dance too, if people were pointing guns at me.
Woo, Saddam's gone. I am so fucking surprised.
