Just a gentle reminder that Tax day is nearing. There is something to say about being older and being on fixed income. ...

Maybe a better idea since they don't know how to use condoms correctly.

That should improve the gene pool somewhat.

Fed taxes successfully filed electronically. Only took 3 tries before it was accepted. About average. Will tackle state tonight.

Filed on first try but had to use the Q&A section several times. To make sure we were not setting ourselves up for a audit. Nothing owed small refund will be prosessed. Step son on other hand will need to borrow the small refund to pay his. Apparently Grubhub and Uber and the likes don't explain to employees to well that they are a independant contractor, responsible for taxes workers comp etc. all they cared was he was insured. Amound due is about 20%$.

of course he does not have it.

Thank you for the Coffee Slim

One can only hope

I used to file electronically, when a refund was in order,

But, being as how I have had to pay the last 3 years in a row, I mail a Cert. check.

Afternoon all. Got some leftover sourdough pancakes for those in need of lunch ideas.

57 and rainy today. Going to take the dog for a walk here in a while. Think we'll climb the hill outside town and visit the cell phone towers.

Finished the second draft of my book last night, or technically very early this morning. 2:30am. I somehow added 25,000 words, and four chapters in the process if editing it down. Apparently i didn't do too badly though, it only added two pages to the overall length.

I like that rubber band challenge idea. It has my vote. I'll donate some of the bands.

My lady is due out of rehab this Friday. She fell in our bathroom, had a minor brain bleed but it wasn't much. She stayed in the hospital for 6 days and has been in rehab for almost 4 weeks. She's doing pretty good but I don't know if she's back to her baseline yet. We're working on it. I've been going twice a day to work with her and her therapists. All this started with a minor head, chest cold, not even the flu and two trips to the doctor. One when it started and another when it was a week old and the doc said her lungs and bp were good. Go figure.

Grrr... Missouri Dept of Revenue website's "fillable/calculating" forms won't work. Downloaded the Mo long tax forms to do by hand. FIVE pages! Have to do the long form because wife now has income for cleaning the Church one day a week. NOT doing it tonight. Still have until the 17th to get it done.

Just returned from town, 2nd time picked up Zpac that doctor called in for me. I hate taking them but it seems to work.

Last night temp got to 101...

The Trinity Kid · April 11, 2018, 07:41:08 PM

Evening all.

Rainy day in California. Temps got to 52.

Walked the dog, took the time to tree some squirrels, and run some rabbits. Those are quickly becoming her favorite pastime.

Waiting for the cherry-picker to come to get a cat outta a tree. Been 30+' up in a pine tree for over a day.

Locsl fire department? I like you saved the tree.

Thanks for the coffee.
Not much sleep last night. Cough syrup and meds were causing a reaction of some kind. I did not cough though.
More spring like weather today.

Major 2 · April 12, 2018, 07:37:08 AM

Had bit of a fit my own self ...woke for plumbing check about 1:30 ish and was hacking could not doze back off till about 3:30
Got the sniffle and what feels like sore throat brewing.

It's going through my Shop crew so I was destine to catch it

The Trinity Kid · April 12, 2018, 04:02:31 PM

Afternoon all.

Currently 55 and rainy and sunny and rainy and sunnyand snowy up higher, and sunny. It's changing by the minute.

I'll add my hat to the "didn't sleep well" ring. Went to bed at my usual time, but didn't get to sleep until 4:30. Combination of chickens squaking and cat walking around the house doing his "run over by a peterbilt" meow.
