Miscellany
- my dog eats his own crap but he won’t touch a chicken strip from Walmart’s deli. I found that to be quite profound yesterday…..
- the IRS tax audit soldiers on. The latest: I called the IRS to tell them I’d gotten their nice packet #2, certified mail, and their sage advice: “You need to look at your tax return”. Ummm…yah. Kinda done that 50million times, tryin’ to figure out what went wrong. My response, “I see what is wrong but I can’t yet explain why it was reported the way it was. Do I need to contact Turbo Tax and ask them?” The sage advice again, “No Ma’am. You need to look at your tax return.” Well now. That’s progress! (really, if my eyes roll up any farther into my head they are going to stay up there!)
- Fall is coming All-of-a-Sudden. From drought and the high 90’s and above to rain and highs in the 70’s, my maple started turning red this week and the tulip poplar has been going yellow for a week or so now. It feels a little like the second half of this year is going to pass by twice as quickly as the first half did. I wonder why that is……but I woke up feeling like we’d better nail down who is hosting Thanksgiving and put together a christmas budget.

Rain and high in the 70s? Wow! It’s amazing what a difference between us and you!!

Indeed. Tomorrow’s high is 76 and it will be rainy like today; then 81 and scattered showers through the week; Saturday and Sunday are supposed to be sunny and 76! I will believe it when I see it; on this side of the cool front it’s muggy and humid.
