we went to our bank, its a credit union. i thought they were going to say no. we have repo which we do pay $100 a month on, an old checking account we owe on that just sent us a letter saying they'll settle for $300 instead of the full $500 so we'll pay that off here soon, and also we owe about $1000 in back state taxes. it was there fault; afew years ago we filed our taxes while stationed in germany and we got back $800. we thought it was odd, but didnt think much of it. they last summer we got a letter saying it was a mess up and we were supposed to pay it back! anyway, those 3 things look bad on our credit. but, they called us back and said they will give us a loan for the furnace plus extra to pay off those state taxes!!! isn't that sweet of them??? i love that bank ! they are always so friendly in there anyway but now i adore them they just want to know exactly how much the furnace will be and the taxes. they want to make out the checks to them instead of giving us the money outright and thats fine with me! they are coming tomorrow morning to do the furnace estimate. i cant wait to get a new ecomomical furnace that will hopefully keep my pipes from freezing!! i may have water again soon!
