March Already?

What happened to the month of February? Or January, for that matter? 2008 is going a little fast, if you ask me!

And of course, March is just that much closer to April which means tax returns. BLECH. I did ours on Saturday and wasn't too happy with the results. I'm not sure how you can have the type of year we had - hubby out of work for three months because of the staph infection and no other income for those three months but mine - and still owe the government money! Nothing to do but bite the bullet, though. I wish we could write off all those medical expenses, but unfortunately, with all the paperwork involved, we haven't started paying our share of cost yet. Guess we can put that on next year's return.

In other news, I finished the lovely Therese Fowler's debut novel, Souvenir, at three in the morning! Yes, I stayed up that late to read it because it was that good. I had been waiting to read it, kind of like waiting to enjoy a fine wine, and I wasn't disappointed! Get thee to a bookstore and buy it - and buy a box of tissues while you're at it. You'll need them!

I also found a terrific new series to watch - Foyle's War - a BBC series about a detective fighting crime during World War II in England. I watched the first one last night and loved it! Now I just need to get the rest!
