An important reminder: The tax year is ending.  Tonight, I started organizing for my 2008 tax filing:

• Gathered business receipts
• Set up my folders
• Planned my filings

I still have more to do, but I will be ready the moment those W-2's and 1099's roll in late January and early February.

You can and should prep now-- want some motivation?  Go to one of the sites listed below and see if you have a refund coming . . . motivated me!
