Tomorrow's the final

Yep, tomorrow I take the final test in my tax class. I spent a couple of hours today going through my book refreshing my memory in preparation and I'll do the same tomorrow before class. I'm confident that I'll pass it unless I really screw it up, so I'll be taking my time to make sure I don't. Once that one is done then we have another couple of weeks of office/organizational training and then that will be it till tax season starts.

It still feels weird for me to be doing people's taxes instead of putting out their fires. Time will tell if I like it or not and if I don't I won't be doing it again next year. I'd rather find some piecework computer fixing jobs so maybe between now and after tax season I'll get a line on some work in that field. But then who knows, this job might turn out to be fun in it's own way, I'll just have to see how it goes.

The snow that fell over a week ago hasn't melted off in the shady spots so that tells you how cold it has been around here. I walked Karen down to the office where I'll be working (she had a meeting there today) and found it's about a 25 minute walk, 17 blocks. It was pretty cold but don't get me wrong, I'm not whining about the cold... not yet anyway, it was just nice to get back to Karen's nice warm house. And winter has not even started yet. Ya gotta love Idaho... I guess!
