Wednesday 4/15: Tax Day!

Had a surprisingly productive day today. It's amazing to me how some days can just wizz by and nothing seems to have gotten done, but today wasn't like that at all.

I found my W-2's and filed my taxes online. In the past I have always done it as soon as I get all the W-2's, and basically never any later than about Valentine's Day or so. This year I kept putting it off, and then Hans and I were both going to bring ours to his tax lady to have them done, and so we were going to file extensions.

I'd read that you needed your W-2's to file the extension though, so once I had them found, I figured I'd just go all the way and file them. Did it online with the free version of TurboTax, and will be getting a refund, which is nice.

Baked some dessert, the recipe was called "Gooey Butter Cake" but it can more appropriately be described as "Butter Bars", as they're not notably gooey, and certainly are not a cake. Not bad, but kind of bland. If I make them again I'll add something to make them a bit more exciting.

Started cleaning my office up again so I can get back to making jewelry and crafts. I really enjoyed making the scrapbook for Joel, and I'd like to make some more papercraft items to sell online.

Although it was fairly cool outside (for California) I had the front and back doors open and enjoyed the breeze through the house.

Made a nice dinner, and enjoyed the evening with Hans.
