My CPA is a smart man...
I had a nice diatribe all typed up and ready to post here, and the internet connection failed...the picture posted but the diatribe not so much...oh well, I'm not even sure what I was rambling about previously, so we'll just let it go..
after spending most of the day on the way to and fro from the CPA's office, we are back home and feeling good...while we weren't able to recoup all the money we submitted to the IRS when we filed our extension, we were able to get back a nice chunk of it with some additional deductions that we weren't aware we could take...so now we'll be getting a refund from the IRS in the next few weeks...I'm glad its all settled...
One of the groovy things that I've discovered is that I should be spending more money...sounds like a joke right? but I didn't have that much spenditure last year, I had already stocked up on lotsa glass and didn't really need new torches, blah blah...well, looks like I should be spending more...I like a CPA who tells me that...time to buy...take more classes...spend more money...sweet...what should I buy first? A pound of each Double Helix? well, that's going a little koo-koo I think...maybe just a small sampling of each color would do...
I did manage to complete one class project yesterday - the Ladder Bracelet that I learned from LIsa Niven Kelly...of course I'll post a pic of it for ya'll, with all the scoop...I think she's just teaching the project, she's not selling the kits for it yet, but if you're in the mood, you should check out her Beaducation website where you can take your own online classes without having to travel to Milwaukee...I have a class on there that I still need to take, once my tools get back I think I'll fire it up and make the project...I can't really DO anything for the next few days w/out my hammers, bench block, pliers, etc..I guess I'll just take pics and post them for ya'll tomorrow...that'll haveta do...I need to get underway early, tho, cause I don't want to melt to the seat outside...its dang hot and I'm gonna be hiding under the shade, shooting pics as fast as I can...
