Today I find myself doing taxes. Not because I am on top of things, because I never am. Not because I want to do my civic duty and pay taxes, because I don't like taxes and we always get a refund anyway. Not even because I am thrilled about the prospect of getting money (which, I suppose, I am....but that isn't my reason for doing them). No. I'm doing the taxes because if I don't my kids in college will receive no financial aid, and I will have to pay it, and we won't be able to pay the mortgage, and we will end up living in a box by the river....or sleeping in our van... Okay, I suppose that I'm being a little melodramatic here. But, I must say that each year, regardless of gettin money back, I look more forward to death than taxes....
On to a happier note! I believe that I aced my math test today, although, I think I may have missed one, so not the 100% that I was looking forward to. But, an A is an A, no matter how big or small!
Another happy note is that I have no school tomorrow, and the sweet baby that I am tending on Fridays for a couple of months will be out of town! That means spending the day in my pajamas with my daughter, Heather! (Maybe I will buy some new jammies with my refund.....)

I believe that you stole my story! I am going to end up living in a cardboard box by the river! And I may bring clothes to change into in case we go somewhere semi nice!
Perhaps you could use the family "bus" to change....we could use it for a closet? hahaha
