De-frazzling

After spending the majority of the weekend gathering data for FOUR tax returns, I am rather frazzled! Today I will drop all of this off at the accountant's . . . yippee . . . It will be off my back & become someone else's problem! I don't know why I find this so daunting. Perhaps it's because the IRS is pretty formidable, & I'm afraid of making a mistake. A prison term is not part of my long range plan! At any rate it will be a great feeling to have this over & done. What a bummer to spend most of the weekend immersed in paperwork though!

My project of having the main bathroom renovated was supposed to take a week. It was bad enough that the bathroom was torn apart the day before Ryan, Renea & Owen were coming for the weekend, but I thought it would be worth it to have it finished by Friday, March 20. Here we are on March 31st, & the bathroom is still a work in progress. Yikes! I'm sick of living with the mess not to mention the inconvenience. Contractors are just in a league of their own when it comes to deadlines!

On the home front there are a couple of exciting tidbits of news:
It was discovered on Saturday that 5 year old Owen is following in his father's footsteps & is a natural breaststroker! He also has signed up for a t-ball team.
It was believed that Drew, who will be 3 in May, had narrowly missed the cutoff to play 3-4 year old t-ball (can't really even wrap my mind around that!) this summer, but they will make an exception for him. Alrighty then, let's play ball!
