After originally completing our taxes at the beginning of February, we got an additional item (that showed we got a refund from Virginia last year) three or four weeks later. The form originally got sent to the townhouse, meaning that this is the third place we’ve lived since moivng out of there and who knows how long the new owners sat on the form before putting it back in the mail. So anyways with all of that said, we knew we needed to amend our Virginia taxes and the one time I tried I got so flustered figuring out where the form fit into it all that I just stopped and put it off till this past Wednesday. It ended up taking six hours to figure out and amend ALL three tax returns. Ugh such a pain. And now we owe money back to two of the three. Thank God this is only once a year because I was about to snap at the vague language used in tax instructions. Not to mention I had to amend our taxes for a similar issue last year. I guess next year I’ll know to hold out for these forms before filing. Hopefully the rest of you had better luck than we did!
Not a whole lot going on here. We were supposed to get a blizzard blowing into town early morning on Friday but the snow was bareable and not quite blizzard status. Even still, Casey and I both worked from home and for me all my hours for Friday were overtime. I’m so sick of all of this snow so hopefully things warm back up and stay that way so we can start reviving our yard and breaking out the summer clothes. I miss my flip flops!
Last night we went to James & Nicole’s for dinner and spades. As Nicole and I are the reigning spades champions it was interesting mixing it up last night with Casey and Nicole vs. James and myself. At the end of the night the score was 1-1. We didn’t even bother with a tie breaker because the games were so long with lots of double nils and 10 for 2s. Then today we met my parents for lunch at the Saltgrass Steak House. I highly recommend the Range Rattlers which are jalapenos stuffed with shrimp and jack cheese. Yum! The portions were so large we had food leftover for dinner too!
This weekend has just flown by and I’m so sad it’s time to start preparing for another work week. It’s supposed to see my last (again) but we all now how that goes for me. I’m sure it’ll be another anticlimatic week.
