As for a blog I love, I'd say both http://maria-rose.blogspot.com/ because of Maria's happy outlook on life and http://handmadebyalissa.wordpress.com/ because I'm continual inspired by Alissa's quilting talent. <BR/><BR/>As for getting my taxes done, as soon as I get my W2's, I mail everything to my brother in law, who is an accountant. Usually everything in done by mid-February.

They can be a bit vulgar at times, but always entertaining. As for taxes, my IRS insanity begins as soon as the forms arrive in the mail in January and end as soon as all the W2's are in, usually by February 15th. I don't do them but DH does and I have to listen to the daily: we are screwed, or we get $$ back this year, until he is satisfied that he has done them correctly.

I am in the divest mode (except that I did go to Goodwill today and found a few things...mostly books though, and they don't count!) I like Crazy Mom Quilts. She makes me feel inadequate, but her quilts really strike a chord with me. Taxes will be done when the docs are all in.
