My Boring weekend

I had to request an extension on my taxes. I started investing last year and the tax rules for the type of investing I was doing were revamped. Most all accountants & tax experts I sought out recommended filing an extension as they did not understand all the changes and needed time to get through the records. I did not even receive the tax documents I need to do my taxes until a day or two before taxes were due. I have been taking an hour or two on week nights & weekends to get closer to finishing my taxes but I needed to stay in for hours and work on it which is what I did this weekend. I ditched out on retreat my church was holding and stayed in all weekend so it was not a fun weekend! (I did get out to run a bit and got out Friday & Saturday night). I did manage to get a lot of records reviewed & a major spreadsheet completed. Despite all the work I got done this weekend the most important thing I learned is be organized & keep my records up to date so next year I don't procrastinate and wait until the last minute!
