Hola, folks! Sorry for the delay in yesterday's post. WordPress has been giving me fits the last couple of days, and I didn't realize it hadn't made my post from yesterday visible until earlier tonight when one of you asked if I was okay, not having seen my post. So... I got that straightened out … Continue reading 2022-03-02 — Lather, Rinse…

I keep forgetting to mention (at least I think I keep forgetting) that I've been on and over the edge for much of the last two days. Why, I don't know, but I just have been. This morning, I think it might have taken a toll on the emotion center of my little body, as … Continue reading 2022-03-01 — Some Days You Just Know

Finally got my donation in to Ukraine. The mobile version of the National Bank of Ukraine's website had a way to pay with a credit card, so I was finally able to donate. May it help. There's so much I wish I could do. I'm not a fighter. I'm a lover. But injustice makes my … Continue reading 2022-02-28 — Go Ukraine!

Hiya, all you wonderful people you. 🙂 Guess what?!?! Barring anything crazy or completely forgotten about, 2021 is now done. For the first time in my financial/tax efforts, I actually met one of my goals, and now it's done. Done!!! 🥳🥳🥳 I just have to copy the file for my accountant and send it off … Continue reading 2022-02-27 — The Great Purge

Good gravy, it's hard to find plane tickets to anywhere near Ukraine. Can't get anything in Belarus. Lublin is available, but really expensive. Warsaw is a bit cheaper. ... Anyway, today was a work-on-cars day. Three cars. Toyota Avalon, battery job. Hyundai Elantra, battery job. Then that really annoying alternator on the 2009 Nissan Murano. … Continue reading 2022-02-26 — Coming to a Close

I probably wrote about this a bit yesterday, but my justice bone has been on fire as I watch Putin mass murder who knows how many people in his campaign to take over/or do whatever he's planning to do with Ukraine. Just thinking about it... gets the blood a boilin'. Part of me is ready … Continue reading 2022-02-25 — Justice Bone

Holar, folks. 🙂 Not much to report today. Got up late after being up late (just like tonight). The winter thunderstorm had rolled in, freezing sleet/rain along with thunder. It was pretty cool, honestly. Don't see that very often, and thunder winter storm. The driveway is frozen, trapping us on the hill again this year. … Continue reading 2022-02-24 — Taxing Tundra

Hiya, folks. 🙂 I am on tired little boy right now. It's 1:30. I've spent pretty much my whole day, apart from a handful of conversations in Spanish with my mother, working on finance stuff. I spent a long time trying to figure out what was going on with the issues with the AutoZone receipts. … Continue reading 2022-02-23 — Tired Little Boy

Happy lots-of-twos day. 🙃 So... what do you do when you have a pile of receipts from purchases and returns you've made that... aren't reflected in your credit card statements? Like... not there... at all. Nada. Zip. Zilch. And... not just a couple either. Many. Many many. It's like my credit card company has no … Continue reading 2022-02-22 — Lots of 2’s

Hola, peeps! Late to bed last night after working on taxes and then spending a good little while sending detailed messages to my programming team manager. Busy busy busy. Didn't sleep so well. Haven't for a little while now. Not sure what the deal is. Maybe I'm just getting old. 🙃 Let's see... today... I … Continue reading 2022-02-21 — Pushing Through 2021
