Well as you can see from the date of this post, I was not so good at keeping things updated during tax season. We are into March now, with the 15th coming very fast. That is the 15th of March. That is the deadline for corporate tax returns to be filed. We will then work towards the 15th of April, which is the personal tax deadline. We have been very busy and I have been putting in long hours. Hubby has been very busy also, working 10 hour days for the past 2 weeks. Since he works for a company that does a lot of repair work, they have been busy because most places cannot afford to buy new equipment, they just fix the old stuff. He has been getting up at 3:30am to be at work at 5am. I am not a morning person, I would rather get up at 7am to get to work by 8:30am, then work until 9pm or so. Tonight we are going to celebrate that his overtime at work is over for now and treat ourselves to dinner out. We made a promise to ourselves during this tax season that we would work on our finances and our health. We have not been going out to eat and we have not been cooking at home. We have made our own version of Nutri-system by eating Healthy Choice meals and Lean Cuisines. It has been working very well. Hubby has lost 13 pounds and I have lost 22 pounds!!! It has made life so much easier for hubby since he usually gets the kitchen duties during tax season and he hates to cook. So now we go to the freezer "buffet" and pick our what we would like for supper. We have been eating soup for lunch each day. I have cooked on the weekends some, but we are trying to be very conscience of our portion sizes.
Other than work and church, we have not been doing much. We did get to babysit for the grandkids on Valentine's Day so their parents could have a nice dinner. We love babysitting and dont get to do it often enough. Our grandkids live about an hour away and we are not as able to see them as much when we are both working extra hours. As soon as the 15th of April comes though, we are going to bring them both over to spend the weekend with us. I cant wait!! We will get to babysit more often for the new one coming in September since they only live across town. I will add a new picture I just got today of the grandkids. They are just too cute!
My break is over and I need to get back to this accounting work that I am doing today. I will try to do better with the updates and thanks for those who are following. I have a few that I follow and I enjoy reading how their lives are going.
