Income Tax Time

Yet another issue before we head off.  I usually use QuickTax to complete the families income tax returns. However, sometimes the tax people want to see some further documentation and evidence and that request usually arrive early in July.  Problem, we won't be here to read and reply.  Solution is to have an accountant complete our returns this year so any additional requests will be sent to that accounting firm. The added advantage of having the accountant complete the returns is he will now be familiar with our returns for the next tax year.

We chose Michael Simpson, (Cindy's husband) as he already has experience with overseas teachers (Maureen).  Turns out Michael is a big hockey fan as he is currently in 2 playoff pools.  He also play golf with Brent, but we won't hold that against him :-).

It's a big relief to get the taxes out of the way. Up next is the EOBA's basketball championship, followed by the Provincial championships, May 1st weekend, followed by the Canadian Championship at Carleton, mid May, followed by the OECTA retirement dinner, followed by the Frank Ryan reunion.  

I hope I have time to get out on my motorcycle once or twice now that the weather is cooperating. That, and I hear the Prescott meat ball sandwich calling my name.
