Crud.

I got my taxes done today by the good people at H&R Block. I went there because owning a home makes things a lil bit more complicated. The good news is I'm getting a refund. The bad news is it's nowhere near what I estimated. I don't think they made an error, rather I didn't know how the mortgage intrest is deducted. I thought I'd get almost every penny back. I didn't. Ah well. What I'm getting is nothing to sneeze at but won't pay for the replacement windows I want for the house. Lesson learned: don't count your chickens before they hatch. (Although this is about the 4302nd time I've tried to learn this lesson)>
