Our office has now completed the 2007 Income tax return filing season. The final, final deadline for all 2007 tax returns was today. Our office typically tries to complete all preparation and review work on the night prior to the deadline so that our fantastic administrative team can copy and get the returns ready for clients to pickup and take to the post office early in the day.
Not so this year.....I signed 3 individual returns and 1 partnership return today. The two other signers each had a similar amount of work for the day. Needless to say, it has been a stressful few days lately.
I kind of feel like my brain has gone to mush.
I got a very early start today, because I knew that partnership return would be fairly difficult. I got up at 4:15, checked email quickly, and got dressed and to work by 5:30 AM.
My son is at church tonight and my hubby is volunteering the next 4 days at Life Enrichment Boot Camps, so he'll be gone and I get the house to myself and don't have to cook a thing!! I do have several school assignments to work on and the house is in need of "female" cleaning.
I'm ready for my weekends off work and a few shorter work days.
Oh, and the reason I said Happy New Year, is because, "This year" finally means 2008 at work. For 9 1/2 months of each year, I mostly work on the prior year's tax returns and think of that as this year. But now this year is really this year. Are you confused yet?
