Tax Man, Part Deux

It came, it came!  The state refund appeared; and I think Pkin is out right now looking at "pretty" things to buy.  For me, pretty things are shoes, sweater sets and jewelry.  For Pkin, think things that are the color gunmetal. 

Our home life is very interesting.

Tax Man Cometh

The Man was here last week, as we all know, but he struck again for us today.  THE CHECK WAS CASHED!

For various reasons, we cannot file our federal return online but the state does accept an electronic file.  And we get money back from the state and have to pay the feds.

In an ideal world, we'd get the state refund before the cash goes out to the feds; granted I should have done the taxes in February when I had all the paperwork but I didn't.  So I've been crossing my fingers since April 14, hoping the state automatic deposit would be processed.  It wasn't and the IRS got their cash today. 

Poor Pkin, he's going to be paying for any purchases with quarters (it's a long story) and his wife didn't even make him a sandwich for his lunch.  She's so bad!

Not Dr. Phil!?!

I had to do it again.  I think this typecasting is more accurate ... the Philster-Not!

Wow, You're a Labrador Retriever!

The Caretaker

Your family is what makes you tick, and you never "flea" from an opportunity to hang out with the whole gang. A family picnic complete with hot dogs, deviled eggs and a refreshing swim in the lake is hard for you to stray from. Your sparky temperament and dogged intelligence mean you are not only a blast to hang out with, but great to work with as well. Your close pals appreciate your patience and forgiveness, knowing you'd rather let sleeping dogs lie than dwell on the mishaps of the past. Your dashing good looks may one day lead to a modelling career, if only you can tame the unfortunate clumsiness that sometimes causes you to go flailing from the catwalk. Learn more »

MIA

That's me, missing in action.  I've been lazy, tired, under the weather, all of the above and then some.  It's hard sometimes just to be.  I forget about reading the blogs that make me happy and then all heck breaks loose.  So I had a moment and of course, Beancounters perked me right up. 

I really don't see the poodle as an MIA type o' doggie, do you?  My inner doggie is conflicted. 

Help with TypePad

I have a few interesting links, they are supposed to appear on the right hand side.  When you come to www.sueworks.com they aren't there.  When you click on the post they appear.  What's the haps?

How I Spent My Blog Time

I didn't have anything interesting to share so I changed the design.  Do you like the purple?

Waiting for a Good Time

I missed breakfast.  It's almost 4 PM now.  Once you miss breakfast lunch just kind of slides by too.  Now it's not quite the end of the day but it's late enough.  I'm ravenous and fearful of putting anything that I would find in this facility in my stomach this late in the day.  It will just open the damn, awakening the horror that is Bad Habit Eating.
