Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Please do misinterpret my delayed reply to your "Here's a first draft." post.

 

When your post arrived, I began reading it carefully so I could understand everything you were saying and act on those things I did understand. While reading and acting, I recruited my wife to assist me in tasks with well-defined objectives so she could actually make meaningful contributions and feel like she accomplished something. When AmyC's post arrived, I began reading and acting on both. Meanwhile, my wife was very productive and she consumed a fair amount of time giving her more and more projects. The two posts had so much good advice, I could not stop acting on what was learning. At some point, I realized if I do not reply quickly, everyone will be asleep before I responded to anyone.  I don't why, but I tackled the two posts on a "Last In-First Out" basis. While I was responding to AmyC, I continued entering data in TT and supporting my wife. I finally finished my reply to her about 20 minutes ago and will now begin creating my response to you.

 

I really appreciated your suggestion that I provide actual numbers for more specific advice. I decided before I take any more of your time, I wanted to extract everything I could from your first draft so I would not have to ask for as much time as I all ready had. When I received AmyC's post, I wanted to maximize the new information so as to reduce my need for assistance.

 

Thanks, again, for all you have done for me, If I cannot reply before I go to work at 9AM, I will certainly get back to you sometime after I get home at 2PM.
