done like dinner

I gave up and went to bed at 11pm last night still not having managed to file our taxes.  As soon as I arrived home from work today I visited the CRA site and managed to get the files loaded into the system.  We managed to beat the deadline by a few hours and it was a horrifically stressful experience filing taxes this year.  Next year I hope we’ll have all our paperwork in time to go back to filing in February.  Much better to get it all out of the way earlier.

On top of getting the tax files off today I also moved all my old blog posts from my 2003 trip to India over to WordPress.  I haven’t selected a new photogallery software yet, so for now none of the associated photos have been uploaded.  Someday I’ll take a few hours and re-read the story of the trip.  There’s so much I’ve forgotten over the years.

Last but not least the hubby got his confirmation back today that he does not need to report for jury selection.  Apparently military members are excluded from sitting on juries.  As officers of the government it’s a potential grounds for appeal if he were to serve on a jury.  This is the second time a summons has appeared at our house.  I was scheduled to be in India during the trial dates when the first summons arrived and was excused as well.  It’s a good thing we vote or I’d think we’d have little opportunity to complete some of our base civic duties…

  1. I’ve never been summoned to appear for jury duty and someone told me it was because we live out in the country. Which seems extremely weird to me and I have to say I don’t really believe them. Because how fair is that? It wouldn’t bother me at all to be on a jury. Ok well. You know what I mean. I would do my duty as well.
