Minor Updates

May 6th, 2015 at 01:21 pm

I bought gas yesterday for $24, and my variables spending for the month is now at 16%.

I got a coupon for a free muffin at Corner Bakery and I used it this morning.

Went to my grandson's orchestra concert last night, so a night of free "entertainment." Ear-bending, some of it. Unfortunately, that meant I missed watching "Chicago Fire," which I wanted to see because it was filmed in my work town. However, it's not like I would see someone I know -- they just used the local quarry for a scene.

Getting the check from Truvia yesterday inspired me to seek out more settlement claims. I filed one for Straight Talk, which may yield $45, and one for Kettle Chips. However, I realized afterward that my Kettle Chips claim fell outside the time limit, so I won't get anything from that. There wasn't anything else I could honestly lay claim to.

I have a phone meeting today with the accountant for our professional organization. We are in arrears with the IRS, for having failed to file taxes for three years. This is the work of a former board. This accountant is helping us untangle the mess. Wish me luck!

    My mom actually covered her ears at my daughter's band concert last week. It was some loud percussion, but I was surprised she did that!

    This wasn't that bad! Just a lot of sour notes. I told my grandson he was the best, and for all I know he was! I couldn't even see him; he was in the back.

    Oh my--DD has hers coming up, and usually the 5th grade band is pretty scary.

    LOL! And then another LOL! I am missing the evening band concert tomorrow for my sons. I will be attending the school performance during the school day. This is the one I look forward to ... when the earlier troubles have seemed to smoothed out a bit since Christmas ...

    Wanna try to do lunch before you're end date? I was offered a TA position at Northern Seminary (yay, me!) and I'm getting ready to maintain balance. I also need to do a college visit with my daughter to your institution!

    Hope all is well! Smile

    I'd love to do lunch! I'm pretty free for these next two months, so just let me know a good time for you!
