Exhausting, but exhilarating considering I was not looking forward to doing them for 2 main reasons:
1. My 2008 taxes tracking file CORRUPTED.
ARG! SO MAD! Couldn’t open it anywhere, and naturally my dumb ass had copied it from OTHER back ups so.. they were all corrupted.
All my hard work into organizing my expenses for taxes. Gone. *sniffle*
Spent 5 hours rooting through receipts, making another Excel sheet and sorting that ish out.
2. I did the calculations and was expecting to pay $9000 in taxes for 2008.
No one looks forward to having to pay for anything.
Instead, good news!
Am going to get back $4500. That’s a really big shocker. I’m happy of course, and totally relieved.
$2000 of it was over taxation by my former employer *shakes fist at them*.
And the other $2500 was just plain ol’ deductions carried over from the year before, and my mad RRSP contributions of around $9930.
Woo hoo!
*squirrels it all away in her Savings/Emergency Fund while she waits for her second contract to come up*
There’s one coming. I can feel it. I feel like I’ll be on a project by end of April, mid-May.
Rags: Tell me about it. I was so surprised.
Lil’Woman: Who doesn’t?
hklover: I’m just going to save it. ๐ I need a 2nd contract before I invest.
Mary: Thanks!
Congratulations! That’s great news!
Wow thats awesome!! What are your plans?
Congrats girl..I love getting money!
woo on the return. It's great when you're expecting to pay & you find out you're getting money instead!
Thanks Rebecca!!
WendyB: Exactly what I was thinking LOL
Once you firm up that other project, you can divert some money to a WendyB acquisition ๐
whoot! Congrats!
