I was screaming from our roof top last month when I finally finished our taxes. Did y’all hear me? I sent out this above pic via my instagram stream to celebrate that the end was near.
I mean, it was hard-core over here for a few weeks. Coffee by the pot, Valentine’s day chocolates – I had to call in for back up.
I am not an organized person.
In fact I’ve become really terrible at it. It drives my husband insane. Insane, I tell you.
But he drives me insane with his lack of not doing multiple tasks at the same time…but that’s another post in itself. Men…;)
I’ve mentioned here before that I am terribly tech challenged. So I’ve been doing most of our taxes the old-fashioned way. With a few programs here & there to help me out. But nothing really to speak of. I’m sure you can imagine the sea of receipts I accumulate with my shop & of course there’s my blog as well. And then our general family receipts, my husband’s work receipts & supplies for our farm. It never ends! And it was about 2 weeks worth of hard-core calculating & tracking down all the receipts needed to finish our tax prep.
The good news, is our taxes are done for 2012.
The even better news is that Staples has decided to help me not to go completely insane, by supplying us with the Neat Mobile Scanner for future use!
I already know that this scanner is a marriage saver.
Because it’s allowing me to become more organized with the important things that drives my husband crazy. Yes, I realize they’re important, but I would rather be doing so many other things. But this little mobile scanner helps me keep track of all those documents for tax season. You just export data to a PDF, Excel, Quicken, QuickBooks® or a TurboTax program. You can keep track of business cards, people who may have worked on your house, vacation receipts, charitable contributions & so much more!
Because trust me, I have so many more receipts! I’ll be putting this cute little scanner to the test throughout the weeks, months & years. Staples is my go to office supply store & lately it has become a destination for some of my home decor items as well. Like this for example. And to all the coffee & chocolate eaters out there…guess what? They carry those important items as well!
Staples makes shopping so EASY too! They have stores just about everywhere now, or you can shop online!
