Last weekend I went with Carl to our accountant to do our tax return. I’m pretty sure we usually do a combined return every other year, I never really paid attention since I was only a student and would get nothing back. When we got there the accountant told us we had to do each tax return seperately. So that meant we would be charged a fee each so double the charge didn’t sound very good to us.

I was only expecting around $500 back as I had only worked 8 months of the financial year and honestly didn’t think I had paid much tax. I was shocked when she told me the final figure. Over triple what I expected! I’m getting more tax back then Carl and he is the main income earner.

I am going to be responsible with the money though, with over 70% going towards bills and debts, but the remaining; I can do whatever I want with it. And since I have all the baby stuff I need, I’m thinking post-pregnancy fashion shopping spree!
