I drove back this morning from my folks house, after practicing piano on my Mom’s nice baby grand piano, of course.\u00a0\u00a0 I was thinking about needing to practice after I got home and I realized that it would make more sense to just practice there–without the distraction of kids and household tasks, etc.\u00a0 And the added bonus, of course, is getting to play on a baby grand which was fun.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Tonight our “tax guy” game and took care of our taxes.\u00a0 It’s nice to have that taken care of again for another year.\u00a0 We had the unexpected and extremely<\/span> rare discovery that we will actually be getting money back this year!\u00a0 It’s not very much–but any money back is a rare treat! \u00a0 I still have nightmares about our very first year doing our taxes after we were both self-employed and it was NOT PRETTY. \u00a0 If I remember it was something like $10,000 that we had to pay in.\u00a0 NOT FUN.\u00a0 Every year we get better at predicting it and it’s such a relief to have the same guy come every year to do our taxes.\u00a0 He knows us now, and we know what he needs us to pull together ahead of time.\u00a0 All in all, it’s great to have it done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
