I'm technically a consultant, though I've been working solely with the same company for years. That means no health care, and no taxes withheld from my checks. I try to estimate how much I'll owe, but I'm rarely right. Since I I'm technically self-employed in a low overhead business (limited deductions) I generally owe upwards of 40% of my income in taxes. Usually I owe the government a few thousand dollars on tax day, this year being no exception. At least I get to work in my pjs.

BTW I have received refunds some years and other times when the pickens were good I paid 30+ thousand in income tax. I have always been proud to pay what ever I owe. I do hope that my art career will be as good to me as my businees career was so I can pay those big numbers to the Uncle in Washington again someday.

Okay, this is cute lol

This is great!

Love the show. Just like watching you walking around beautiful California, complete with palm trees and fuchsia flowers.

This week has been just right, and so…. you.

Hey Amanda, how come the candy companies haven't yet capitalized on this holiday? TaxDay M&Ms, 1040ez bars?
