It shouldn’t be this hard. We took our info to a well-known tax filer last Tuesday and they still haven’t finished with them! It’s because of the lump sum of a year’s back pay I got when I was approved for disability last year, for which I have to pay taxes because, says the SSA, our combined income is above a certain amount. These guys decided today that this only counts for senior citizens but that’s wrong. My social security payments are for disability not good ol’ social security. Hel-LO!!!

I woke up at 5:30 so I got up instead of tossing and turning. Obviously I need to start over with regulating my sleep schedule. I think Daylight Savings is involved. The process takes 20 days, says the pdoc.

I made an appointment to return to the salon because I messed up the white part of my (French) pedi. The time I scheduled was too optimistic so I rescheduled for 4:30. My day didn’t start off right and I asked Brian to cancel. I have not showered. I’m trying not to beat myself up over this.

I made a pedicure appointment on my own, without asking Brian to call for me. I didn’t cancel, and I drove myself there! Just got back a little while ago. Yay!!!

Brian and I had brunch today and I drove! I have not driven since October 2007!!!
