Good morning ladies, hope all is well.

Jean - Thank you for starting us today, hope your appt. goes well today.

I sit here with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes, my furbaby crossed over the Rainbow Bridge this morning. He was 17 years old and lived a very good life with DH and I, I will truly miss this dog. Got to go, trouble seeing thru the tears.

Have a good day everyone.


I am so sorry...I lost two furbaby kitties last year...one was 17 and just old age..the other was 11 and had some chronic issues..they wiggle in your heart and family..and just breaks us..

hugs to you!

LL, we don't normally file our income taxes until March, but mom likes to get her's done early & since we are taking her to the clinic we are trying to do a few things at the same time on Thursday. Sorry about your DH & his CC mess. Such good news about your middle DGS, Have fun at your lunch out today.

I don't like doing financial stuff so I am glad to say that we are all ready to see our tax lady on Thursday. It is amazing how much prescription's cost & health care. I always want to cry when I see how much I spent on drugs & clinic bills. DH just says as long as "I am walking that is all that counts." Bless his heart. We both have new prescription cards this year & new supplements. Hopefully they will be good for us.

pinky ann, I wish you luck in getting your tax "info" together. Thank goodness we only have to do this job once a year. Last year DH & I made the mistake of transferring money from one IRA account to the other. It put us into the next tax bracket & we ended up paying Uncle Sam over a 1,000.00. The bad thing was we didn't buy anything & we lost interest on the account. It definitely was a lose-lose situation not a win win situation. I know that I could do a better job with using natural products. Sometimes it is just too easy for me to grab a can & go clean with it.

Twinny, I would have been so upset too if I'd cost myself money like that. I feel like taxes are so complicated that it's hard to always know the right thing to do. I feel like your mom, in that I want to just get it over with.

I do have regular cleaning products still in use. When they're getting close the end, I'll just not replace them. I love my current glass cleaner though, so that may stay no matter what. lol My sister feels I'm obsessed with my windows, and I can only agree with her. I love looking outside as we never know what birds, deer, or even bear may be around, and that's why we live here. To be surrounded by all of that. I just like to see it all through clean windows! pinky

Pinky Ann, I like clean windows too. I don't like it when the sun is shining & my picture window is dirty. We see birds & squirrels & sometimes a Badger. No deer or bear as we live in town.
