Daylight Savings Time Ends!

Just in case you didn't know daylight savings time has ended!

What this means is that it is time to turn back the clocks one hour.

Believe it or not there have been some serious debates that question the validity of using daylight savings time!

Many countries observe DST, and many do not. The reason many countries implement DST is in hopes to make better use of the daylight in the evenings, as well as some believe that it could be linked to reducing the amount of road accidents and injuries. The extra hour of daylight in the evening is said to give children more social time with friends and family and can even boost the tourism industry because it increases the amount of outdoor activies.

April 15th! - Tax Day!

I didn't really notice it until I signed in to my AOL account but this is the last day to file your taxes! April 15th is definitely the last day to file your taxes before you will be charged a penalty!

I was able to send in all of my tax returns a few days ago so I managed to beat that last minute bad rush!

Since I work from home myself, I won't be getting a tax refund. Since I am self-employed there is a self-employment tax that I have to pay.

There is also a local tax in my own local area that I have to pay on my income as well!

So all together that is 3 tax forms that I have to fill out yearly! But I'm glad to say that I did manage to get all three done in time!
