I'll do mine one of these next couple of weekends.  I don't know the first thing about cars, but I think if I told my dad I sent mine out to get done he'd look at me like other people's fathers would if they told them they took their car in for an oil change.

He's not an accountant or anything, but used to do his entire extended family's all by hand, and I'd sit and learn.  I have few life skills, but I'm pretty good with taxes.  When I got married and my wife and I started filing jointly, I started looking at the crap the accountant she had been using was doing, and it made my blood boil.  He was missing obvious stuff, but falsely claiming other stuff.  It was a mess.  I was shocked we didn't get audited that first year, simply because of how many things on hers changed without reason, just because they were suddenly finally done correctly.

The business returns should be done by tomorrow, and then I can have the personal ones done.



SALT limits are going to hurt me, badly. We'll still itemize though.

Btw, Shawn Oakman was acquitted yesterday. 

Yeah, unpleasant annual duty around here.  I had to pay another $40 to get the second state.  I only paid about $45 for the original TT version at Costco.  Then at the end I paid $40 to file electronically with each state because I was too lazy to print the forms and mail them in.
A LONG time ago, I had created an Excel spreadsheet that mirrored the tax forms.  It was pretty good and very useful in that it did all the calculations for you.  Then Turbotx et al. appeared, and was cheap at the time, and I was hooked.
I would love for there to be some real tax simplification but I don't expect it, don't mean to get political.

Hold on now, I make money on the complexity of the tax system. No simplification. Also please don't let people know that they can use a program like Turbotax and do it themselves.

Very interesting.

The electrician has been here installing stuff, including undercabinet lighting.  It is multicolored and can be set to cycle between red, orange, green, blue, yellow, and fortunately white.

We were laughing at it, but ended up leaving it on last night during dinner.  We decided we kinda liked it for a background lighting feature.  It is weird though.

We can set it to just white.  Still waiting on countertops of course.

Counter guys suck, generally. If they tell you a week, plan on two.

Costco filets are good, $12.60/lb here.  I grilled some last night.  The previous occupants left a small electric grill I had turned up my nose at but it actually is quite good, I prefer it to gas.  It cranks up the heat and I get a very good sear.
