What you don't know, can kill you


I stumbled across this web page one day and felt compelled to share it with you. It's very informative, and I feel that I am now better prepared to prevent what could have been a tragedy to my uninformed family. Who knows what could be lurking around the next corner?

Give to Caesar... all your money


Tax season has crept up on me and it has been crazy. We just got a letter from the IRS saying that we made a mistake on last year's taxes that needs to be fixed. It took them a year to find this??? Oh, boy. So now I have to make a bazillion corrections before April 9th. Good times. The upside is that I got this year's taxes done and hopefully they are mistake free. The bad news is that we owe about $1400 in taxes this year. 

In other news, I don't have Hepatitis B or C or HIV. Wahoo. I managed to slice my thumb with a scalpel this past week while removing a tibia from a donor. There was a little concern that the donor would be infected with one of the big three and that it would be transfered to me. But the blood tests came back negative, so I will be sticking around for a while longer.
