Taxes

I got my self employment tax down from $600.00 to $279. This is thanks to a nifty little thing called the earned income credit. Also, the free version of Turbo Tax helped me out quite a bit. It pays to figure your taxes electronically instead of by hand. Hopefully, this is the end of my tax stress this year. Well, it will be after I come up with $279.00.

I got my hair cut today. Added some layers and cut it a little shorter. Nothing major. There is a couple at church that has looked familiar to me since I started going to Stones River. I couldn't figure out why. It finally clicked today when I got my haircut. Brent works there and his wife Elizabeth does hair. In fact, Brent gave me one of my best hairwashings ever a year or so ago. It wasn't the actual washing, it was the scalp massage after. My scalp had never been so happy and relaxed :)

I owe God a huge thanks for providing me with help for my taxes. There is absolutly no way I could have paid 600 dollars. 279 is a lot, but it's much more reasonable! I've always believed that God doesn't give you more than you can handle. Maybe he works the same for taxes too?
