Tax Day


Hooray!  Tax Day!  It's finally over.  We always wait until the last day to finish paying our taxes because we are self-employed and have estimated taxes throughout the year.  So each year alternates, one year we have to pay more and then the next year we have overpaid and that is applied to our first quarterly estimated tax payment.  Last year we overpaid, so this year I knew we would have to pay more.  But I was so pleasantly surprised that it wasn't as much as I was expecting.  Yea!  I am glad that is over.  I'm feeling better now after having had the strep throat.  It really made me tired.  Too tired to stare at the computer for very long and I still had to stare at my work computer, so the work was all I could stand to do.  Now maybe I can get caught up on reading some blogs and creating a post or two.  I'm going to go to Tulsa this afternoon to exchange some sunglasses that I bought.  They are not very comfortable and they were expensive so I hope they will still allow me to exchange them.  I am two days over the 30 day return but I was too sick last week to take them and twice I tried to return them before but I forgot the box the first time and completely forgot the sunglasses the second time.  I am going to talk to a manager there and see what they will do for me.  Wish me favor!
