TAXES


I guess I am just blogging a lot today. It has been a while since I wrote anything so I am going to go with it is ok. :) You don't have to read it if you don't want to. I called my mom and did my taxes yesterday and I want to die!!! I am SO frustrated! We made $6k more then we did the last year and they took out $2.5k less in taxes...which to most people would be a good thing except now we aren't getting the return we were looking forward to and with Andy having quit working for his brother our savings account is getting a little too low for comfort. It turns out I OWE the state of Cali $20. Yeah, it's not much...but when we are BOTH pulling 0 that's messed up!!! I can not stand our government anymore. It's getting beyond ridiculous! Anyway, that's my rant about paying taxes....Maybe we should just give up working all together and live off of welfare for the rest of our lives... Those people can make a killing...LOL...LOVE YOU GUYS!

UTAH

I was able to go to Utah for my birthday and I had a fabulous time! I got to see so many friends I haven't seen in a while but the highlight of my trip I would have to say was visiting my grandparents. I have a tendency to forget how old they really are. Grandpa will be 86 this year and Grandma 81 (I think). That is insane to me!!! I didn't take as many pics as I wish I would have! The snow was incredible! I miss it SO much!!! Also, up at Grandma's house there were plenty of deer to be seen (just not to be taken pics of). Here are some of the few shots that I did get.

VIRUS

OK, so my computer got this nasty virus....I'm not going to say where from *COUGH*Myspace*COUGH*, but it sucked SOOOO bad!!! Andy was going to try to fix it but he has been working two jobs (Ralphs grocery store and Elite Security) which has been keeping him extremely busy. I then decided just to have my friend from school do it since he is an IT guy and is taking a bazillion classes on computers and everything else. It took him 3 days to fix it. Only because I didn't want to lose everything, so he copied everything I had onto his hard drive and then back over to my portable to make sure that I didn't get the virus on my portable. When trying to fix it, the virus tried to attack his computer. :( STUPID VIRUS!!! Eventually everything ended up being wiped off my computer. Thank heavens for friends that are willing to put the time and effort into saving all my pics!!! Now to update and fix the desktop...
