I am not the only one!!

And yes, doing taxes is a disappointment, I understand. Took me an hour and a half to learn I am getting $20 back. So I understand the want to push it aside till the last minute.

So fess up? Who else is dragging their feet?

I know I can not be the only one!

And I'm not complaining. Hubby took a new job knowing that we would get a hot on the 401K loan. The hit was half the amount his new job's increase was.

I Was really scared when he said he was gonna look for something new, but it worked out.

LFR, I hope you take that *little bit back* and treat yourself to something nice. I have told you before, and I;m saying it again... you are an inspiration.

I've been homeless, and separately, I have been pretty much destitute. (hell I've had a few bad times in my crazy life) I clawed my way back... and it looks like you did too.

I could use it.

In my defense, My B.A. is in Communications, nothing to do with Accounting.

Of February. We got a sizable return. Just my husband working, and three children. We are waiting for ssdi on me.
However, April 15 is my youngest 7th birthday. So I have a sort of deadline on that.

And oh no I am not. We never got along. He was a Baptist Minister. He had some...opinions on how a girl should be. I never adhered to them. We never got along due to them. And when I converted to Catholicism....

My mom on the other hand... she was a California girl. She was a big civil rights movement. She was happy to let me be me.
