I can breathe again!

Why, yes, my cold is all gone now.  Thanks for asking.  I meant, though, that I can relax.  I have received my federal tax refund, so there is money in my NM checking account again.  I could've paid my apartment deposit and bought some groceries anyway, but now I also can reimburse my mom for the credit card bill I expect to arrive at her house any day now.  I'll still be pinching pennies for a while, but I no longer feel the need to panic.
