Even though tax day isn't until April 18th this year, thanks to a Washington, DC holiday. Emancipation Day marks the anniversary of the signing of the Compensated Emancipation Act, which president Abraham Lincoln signed on April 16, 1862. Since April 16th falls on a Saturday this year, the District is celebrating the holiday today.
Oh, and a happy weekend, to all!
On a personal note, April 15th has always been very good me.
23 years ago today, I adopted the best cat ever -- Waldo. Long since gone.
5 years ago today, I returned to the SF Bay Area after a few happy years in Buffalo, NY. Buffalo rocks, by the way.
And a very happy anniversary to my wonderful husband, married 11 years ago today on a drizzly Palm Sunday weekend.
Oh, and did I say don't mind paying taxes?
