Reality & the Downside to Country Living

Reality. I am doing my taxes. "It's early", you say? Yes. But tax time this year ends up right when I have oodles of puppies due, a baby of my own, and federal taxes(which I do myself). Not wanting to take on more headaches I decided to pay early since I am done doing business this year anyhow. I was not a little shocked upon completing them. I ignorantly did them last year, this year I am digging deep to figure it all out. As posted previously I am NOT a number person so I am pulling my hair out. Such is life. It wasn't THAT bad...I guess...maybe...yeah it was.

Paul, honey?

Training isn't working on this one.

I found her this morning during school happily rocking in the chair biting the little pearls off the ornament!!! Arg! So, what is plan B?






This is the part of the post title "The Downside to Country living"

It isn't all breathtaking scenery and refreshing country smells.

Whilst I sipped on my cup-o-hot-java, this is what greeted my eyes smack in the middle of my front lawn.

Paul, honey? The farmer didn't want to pay for the dead animal truck again, the dog found it & I ain't touch'n it.

Another of my favorite save-time-for-other-things discovery was Turbo Tax! A computer program that helps me do my taxes in about an hour. I used to do them myself, year after year. And a friend mentioned Turbo Tax one year ... you can buy it at Costco for about $35. and so I gave it a try. It was, really, unbelievable! I'm sure it figured out deductions that I wouldn't have ... I'm convinced it pays for itself that way. Not to mention the time saved. Love it!
