BASEMENT!

Our Basement is so SCARY! totally unfinished and full of spiders and other buglike invaders, I've never liked it ( and the kids are afraid to go down there). Well we have been cleaning it tons and working really hard to save some money so that we could attempt to de-gross it, and finally it is happening! It is all framed now and our good friend redid the plumbing and electrical! I am soooo excited to have a "pretty/clean" Laundry room ( I might actually Iron for once lol). Well last night I finished the insulation in the soon to be family/play room last night and now Dave just has to do the Drywall and we're ready for Carpet! Hooray hooray. Well I took some before and afters and will post them when I get them on this computer but it's a pretty striking contrast! to those who hasven't seen it--- it's very funny itt has very thick cement walls through out it and a series of "alice in wonderland doors" ( each door you walk through is about 6 inches shorter than the one before. It's kindof looks like it was made for a hobbit. Alas soon it will all be clean and done, what a very happy thing!

TAXES! TAXES! TAXES!

January is TAX season for me at the Office. I am responsible to file all the annual state and Federal, business/ payroll reports, Property taxes, as well as the W-2's and W-9's and 1099's (forms). Needless to say there is a lot of paperwork, filing, numbercrunching and just overall headache involved in January! Well I am very human and tend to procrastinate everything until later in the month because I dread it. ( If I start the fifteenth I can usually finish by 31st due date) Anyways, now that everyone is asleep, I have GREAT news. I'm Finished! Hooray, Hooray, Hooray! I'm super Psyched to be done and sooo early. I think this is the smoothest January has every gone and it's extra nice because now the last three days wont be the usual Nightmare and I may avoid my annual migraine. What a happy thought!
