FINALLY did my taxes. E-filed with 1hour, 50 minutes to spare! I struggled with whether to itemized or file a straight 1040. The past 8 years I've itemized, but as my income has increased (which is a good thing) it has become increasingly hard to "find" enough valid deductions until finally this year I felt I was pushing it. So, I bit the bullet and filed the straight 1040.
I have have a HUGE headache now and a VERY empty bank acct! Ended up oweing 2900 federal and 320 state. Going to HR tomorrow to change my withholdings so I don't owe for 2008.
Oh well. I feel better now that its over and I don't want to worry about an audit, which I was very worried about if I had let my tax guy do them again.
Thanks for listening.
And catchme....I'm jealous of the weightloss thing. I just eat like crap when I'm stressed.
