I had my nails done today and while I was sitting I was watching CNN a report came on about income tax and it reported on how you can claim the interest on you children's student loans if you are paying a part of it. We are in fact paying our daughter's student loans. It was a deal we made with her when she went to college. Since her tuition was paid in full because I was employed by the university we told her we would cover the cost of any student loan for books, computer, etc. So I called my husband and reminded him of that and he had to dig out the information from out personal paperwork and get it to the tax man ASAP, since we had already brought all of the stuff to him this morning.
There are some pictures on my blog back in the Spring of 2010 of a beautiful concrete basket that my husband bought for me as a mother's day gift. I put it in my flower garden in the front of the house filled with flowers it is so pretty. I decided today to decorate it for Easter. I went to AC Moore, our local craft store, and bought some artificial Easter basket grass, two wooden bunny rabbits a male and a female, some plastic eggs and the best thing of all the decorations are six hand made wooden tulips. My father in law as a wood worker and he use to make some cute easy to make wooden crafts to sell in his family owned gas station. He made the tulips and my mother in law painted them. We don't have very many things from them that they made and I was doing some cleaning in our basement and came across these just the other day. They were among my mother in laws things that we have stored here from when we broke up her home and moved her here closer to us in an Assisted Living facility. I took a picture of the finished basket and I will try to post it as soon as I can remember how to download it to my computer.
