Ok, working on quarterly taxes.

I am doing research -- I know I need an accountant, but we have $22 dollars, so no way I can have one for this quarter -- but I am not sure...counting home office space and utilities is NOT done on quarterly taxes, but on yearly taxes due in April, right?

Can I get a quick test email from someone?

Please send anything to bonny@thedoggylama.com and another to (anything you want)@thedoggylama.com.

This is supposed to be a bucket email address but I'm having trouble getting it to work from two of my providers.

Muchas gracias!

Thanks, Laura.

It's weird, but the 'bad' test came right through and I'm waiting on the other.

When I sent them to myself, the 'bonny' took forever to arrive. I wonder what the difference can be?

In any case, thanks!

Hrm. So, it seems the 'anything' messages come through easily. For some reason, the 'bonny' ones get delayed. What on earth could cause that.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Erin, are you talking about form 1040-ES, or something else?

Yes, 1040-ES. I worked on it for three hours, and it's all based on last years gross, Dan's and my gross, where's the form to do business expense deductions quarterly (IS there a form? I want a form!) and do I do the home business and utility deductions in April and OMG I am so getting an accountant if I have to whore for it.

It was really confusing, and I'm a pretty competent researcher. It's all like, I've been in business two months; how the fuck do I know how much I'll have made by 12/31? $300? $10K? (HAHAHAHA.)

Sorry for the barrage, but I've been keeping careful records and then I got to the IRS stuff and I was all "WTFF?"

ETA: bonny, I know you got the one message, but FWIW, I did sent emails to both addys.

Oh my sweet weeping moses.

My own 'bonny' test took 5 HOURS to arrive. How can that be.

Erin, I did ultimately receive both your tests. Thanks for that.

Mystified.
