Happy February (and Friday!)

We always do our taxes in February, so I've been waiting for this day! And, it's Friday!! And the sun is shining on the beautiful snow!!!

Our tax appointment is on Tuesday! So today I prepare myself for that appointment. I've been preparing through the past week by collecting all of the information and papers I need for this appointment. I cleaned out our filing cabinet and got all the important docs out of that (while switching over to our 2013 filing system). I checked all my "special areas" (ie: the mail bin that was over flowing, the junk area) to see if there were any stray medical receipts I needed.
We received Seth's W-2 in the mail last week (which was early for his company) and the last of the medical financial reports yesterday. So, here goes. I'm ready!


The Coke represents Energy
The mouse represents the Computer I need
The file represents the Taxes I'm working on
The CD's represent the music I am listening to

Yep, I'm ready!
Have you filed your tax return, already? Do you do it yourself or have someone else do it?

You're way to ambitious! Or maybe I'm not ambitious enough??? We usually file sometime in late March...

Agreed, you are ambitious. We usually prepare our taxes in January, but wait to file until April. We have our oldest kids do the taxes (no joke), then very carefully check their work. The kids are so proud of the money they "earn" for us. It's a great life experience.
I enjoy getting things done and out of the way, that's only one reason we file early. One other reason is so we don't get stuck not getting an appointment with our favorite tax guy!
