When life hands you lemons ...

I was supposed to go in to have taxes done on Thursday, but we're due for more snow and I didn't want to hassle rush hour traffic after-taxes in a snowstorm, so ... I will meet my tax guy in one hour! Yikes!

Needless to say, I'm rushing around a bit. I had already put things together ... somewhat so now I sorted things out and hopefully I have all I need. I doubt that is true, though -- it seems like every year I forget one vital piece of info that I have to call in. Then I need to go in, pick up the forms, we sign them, I take them back.

But the lemonade part of it, you ask?

His office is near the best bakery in town, home of yummy homemade quiche, delectable desserts, and excellent bread.

Oh, sigh. I need to go the accountant's office again. Well, I may as well swing by the bakery on my way ....

Keep your fingers crossed that we come out okay!

One day you'll have to explain in slow simple words how to file quarterly. I always get the, "Oh it's easy, you just go get a form and estimate what you think you'll make and then send it in to the government."

And I'm left thinking: A) Get what form B) Get it where C) Estimate pre or post expenses D) Send it where with what specification on it?

I find when people say "you just" I get lost in the dust faster than if you tried to explain balancing complex chemical equations or psychological analysis. THAT I can do.

I just phoned my DH to tell him to get his butt busy working on tax stuff so we can go. I hate this time of year!
