And the spam just keeps on coming, complete with good news and bad

 We owe on our taxes.  3700.00.   I need to go over the paperwork and see if there are any mistakes.  I have a feeling we got  jumped up a few tax brackets with me working.  Does not pay to have me work.

Good news: Mark's chest pains are not heart attack, more muscular.  That only took almost 4 hours in the ER.  

Other good news: I am not in a cast but an ugly ass boot.  I picked the boot  over the flat shoe since the straps were not right over my fracture they way they were with the flat shoe.  It was the 5th metatarsal fracture, diagonally, not horizontal.  Even I could have found the break looking at the x-rays.

Off to take some good pain pills.  Got quite a stash now.  Should be able to sleep through anything at Sturgis. 









edit b/c I can't spell worth shit.  When is LJ going to come up with automatic spell check?

I am going to recommend something I usually dont recommend -- see about doing your taxes through H&R or something like that -- I have been hearing a lot of good stories about them finding good deductions that normal people would never think of and helping to reduce massive payments like that.

It might be worth the $120 or so.


Also -- those boots are ugly but wayyyyy better to manage than a cast. Yay for pain pills. :o)

They were done by my accountant, H&R usually doesn't want to touch taxes that includes home based businesses. I just didn't loose enough on the Longaberger business (and I worked). This year was the first year I've worked since we increased our income with Mark having a decent job.

You would think those ugly boots would come in different colors. Better than a cast, I can take the sucker off when I get home. I can remember to keep my foot flat at home.

Decided that taking my calcium again might be a good idea.

No shit on the calcium, huh?

Gives me indigestion.
