Guest guest Posted April 27, 2004 Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 I have a home licensed daycare too. Have you ever checked out the Redleaf press? They have lots of good info on tax deductions. I know what you mean about trying to prove what is for daycare and what you would normally use. I think the paperwork is the worst part of this job, that and people thinking all you do is sit and play and have fun! It's a good income and fortunately I have family help to make it work so well. Becky Re: [ ] , I hope Joe is feeling better. It¹s tough to be on Enbrel and have to stop when we get sick, but it isn¹t worth the risk to continue it. We all hate this disease. It robs us of so many basic pleasures in life. It¹s good that Joe¹s doctor isn¹t considering surgery on his carpel tunnel. I have to agree with the ortho. We moved to the southwestern part of Florida. We¹re a few hours from Disney. Getting a scooter is the only way to see Disney without being in agony. They are very considerate of people in wheelchairs and scooters. Have you ever camped in their campsites? They are fabulous. We sold our camper before we moved but are looking forward to getting another one. We love camping and have a whole new area to explore. The only plans we have are to get our new house the way we want it, go to the beach and go boating. How about you and Joe? a > > > Hi a..... > I just think its neat that when one of our members are down--we are all down > The care and compassion of this group is like no other.
