Taxes done... mostly

Tax day has come and gone and left me... flattened in its wake.

I'm not too bad when it comes to working out taxes, even if I do say so myself. Actually, both my mom and my dad had said it too. I do okay making my way through the confusing aspects of what is supposed to go where on the forms with relative ease and know how to report a variety of income types (Kind of have to learn that when you do several people's taxes and live in a state with dividends and work as a freelancer).

And yet, I ended up needing to file an extension this year because I can't find the papers for my taxes that are lost somewhere in the house. Spent close to three hours on the phone yesterday and determined I *CAN* decide not to take depreciation and business expenses if I want to, but I still want to make one more try at locating the papers and going over bank stuff to reconstruct things if I cannot locate them.

Should have my taxes filed by Friday. yay!
