I live, write, and garden in the PNW with my husband of 30 years, disabled daughter, autistic son, and my 85-year-old mother. We have paid off $250,000.00 worth of debt (if you include the interest) in the last fifteen years and as of 6/12/2020 are 100% DEBT FREE!!!!So DH said there are rumblings going on about end of the year bonuses. What he's hearing is anywhere from 5% to 10% of the yearly salary depending on what your job is. He's not sure where he falls. And me? I'm not counting on anything. It just seems off to me because before when DH got a yearly bonus in a similar company, it was around $800 after taxes. A bonus of 5-10% of his gross seems like a fairytale to me. And rumors are always just that, rumors, until I have the money in my hands.
It would be nice. And I can dream about it. But I don't believe it just yet. I sort of wish I could stop thinking about it entirely, because in my head I can already see how fast it would bring down the credit card debt. And I want that so much.
I called my doctor's office this morning to see if they'd make the appointment with the surgeon. They hadn't. The doctor hadn't even remembered to tell anyone to make it. *sighs* Anyway, now I'm waiting to hear back as to when it will be. If I haven't heard by 3:00 I will call again. I want this to move forward.
Rumblings
