Stimulus Check from the Gov...

So we thought the stimulus check from the gov. was going to be deposited into our account yesterday. We were all excited about this, had plans on how we were going to use the money (baby stuff); I even went to Babies R Us and bought the Jumperoo and Bumbo on Thursday because I had coupons that expired that day and just put it on my Capital One card to pay back on Friday when we got the Stimulus check. And guess what... NO CHECK. We tried calling the IRS all day yesterday to find out why we didn't get our check and of course couldn't get anywhere. Finally Paul got a hold of someone at the IRS this morning and come to find out we will be receiving a paper check and not direct deposit... Why? Because when we did our taxes we did them through an online service that charged $29.99, but we didn't have to pay that until our refund came... which meant that our rebate went to the company first, they took their $30 and direct deposited the rest of the refund into our account... so techinically we didn't have direct deposit from the IRS for our refund in Feb... ARGGGGG...

Anyways, I was gonna make this post longer but I gotta go... Babies getting fussy!!
