Weight: 209.6 lbs.
Tom and I may be so screwed today, and I am anxious as we await our morning appointment with the accountant to have our taxes done. For the first few years of our marriage, we ended up owing thousnads, and although we have managed to do better since then, I am still scared. If you don’t hear from me again, its because I may have needed to sell this laptop to finance our tax bill!
And, what better way to lose weight than to be too broke for groceries!? Seriously though, I am worried and will be happy when this is behind us. Tonight we are also heading to the casino to cash in on our freebies, and although we can’t lose if we play by the rules, I am always anxious as to just how much we may mange to sneak out of them.
At the dinner at our metal detecting club yesterday, I did win several auction calls, and in addition to the stuff I really like and will keep (like a rice/veggie steamer), I won some crap I will probably add to our spring garage sale. I am beginning to strategize the perfect date for this, and am inclined for the first weekend in May, as there are now events the next two weekends, and I really want this all behind me asap. And, I hate having them in the heat of summer when it becomes nearly unbearable to shlep the stuff around and bake with it in the driveway. Although this year I may not have as much trouble with the heat as I have in past, I expect.
Also at the dinner, I did take a few small liberties, although I wasn’t too bad. Mostly a little too much roast beef, a tiny dab of mashed potatoes, and a few bites of cookie. It could have been worse…much worse, as everything under the sun was there for the taking.
Well, there is little else to say today so I’m not even gonna fake it this time. And we can all get on with our day…!
