Tuesday Madness

On the one hand, I can't believe that it's only Tuesday, as I have been so incredibly busy so far this week.


On the other hand, I'm glad that it *is* only Tuesday because there is still a lot that I want to get done before my cousin and her fiance come to stay with us Friday evening.


*Happy Note: My baby shower is on Saturday!!*


Today is the deadline for taxes, so last night I spent about 2 hours organizing our files and making sure that we had done them right, and copying them out onto forms neatly (since our printer is not working currently). Then, I wrote out envelopes and checks and got together the W-2s, and today I got them in the mail. Hooray for being done with taxes this year!


Unfortunately, we owed a lot this year. How often do you think that the IRS misses the need to calculate the estimated tax penalty? I'm kinda hopeful that they don't notice that the amount we owed was more than 10% of our total tax due (it was 23%!), and that they don't send us a bill for the penalty. But, I won't be surprised if we get one. I'm not sure how much to expect the bill to be, though, having never had to pay it before and not being willing to look at the "complicated" form to try to figure it out myself.


Something that I really need to do is go out and buy some new maternity clothes. The pants that I am wearing right now are too tight to be worn again, and I really shouldn't have worn them today. I tried looking around at some places this weekend, but since I only looked at Target and Wal-Mart, and they didn't have anything (big surprise), I didn't buy anything. I guess I will just have to go to the mall. The mall is fun, but exhausting. Especially Easton, because the parking can be so far away from the stores sometimes.
