Planning a bathroom remodel next year with it, I'd rather go to Hawaii but that doesn't look like it's going to happen.

I initially increased my withholdings earlier this year to try to force a refund. But, stuff happened, bumped withholding back down, probably going to get a bill again this year.

Last year was my first refund in many years, got $36 back iirc.

Get a lot taken out during the year to use for vacations and such but this year it's going toward new gas boiler for rental property

No extra cigars for me. This year it's going straight into savings!

We burned through our savings at the end of 2013 on medical bills when the twins were born, then this year we started off with a $1200 repair to our van, then in turn had to replace the dryer, washer, refrigerator, dryer again, another $700 van repair, and then had to full-on replace my car due to a cracked engine. My son also started school, so we have a second tuition bill this year.

It's been an expensive year for us, but by the grace of God (and a lot Craigslist sales) we squeaked by without going into debt! Let's just say I'll feel much better having some savings built back up.

Pay off some unexpected medical bills (emergency appendectomy, Bleh!!) if there's any left, I'll split it between savings and the "Cigars & Vacations Fund"
