Tax Time

The time has come for us to bite the bullet and do our taxes. It is such an ordeal with the houses. Ray does that part. He took 6 hours on Saturday working on the Cougar House taxes. Then he had everything in order for the others to fall into place. I did the itemized and 1040 in a couple of hours. Now I am waiting for him to finish up. We will get it sent off this week, hopefully. It is always such a feeling of accomplishment to finish it up. We have certainly been blessed this past year, as our donations have gone way up!

I have been busy with the Scouting Advancement. Our Eagle Board of Review will be March 5th. We have 6 Eagles ready for their Board of Review. That is more than this District did all last year. It is good though that so many are making it through. I am proud of my six Eagles.

All of our grandkids are so precious. It is good to see them on the blogs and how much they are growing. Take good care of them and teach them the gospel. That is the most important thing you can give them.

Time is Passing

Time seems to be going by so quickly. We have lots of things to do and don't seem to get any of them completed. It seems that we are so busy on the week-ends. We were in Salt Lake this last Saturday attending meetings. Ray is my driver and that really wastes his time. He is a good sport and drives me all over.

This next week-end with the extra day on Monday, we will be going to Cedar. Thomas needs his cap and gown for graduation. Then we plan to bring his passport back with us so that we don't take a chance of loosing it in the mail.

I will be happy when this week is over. This past week we went for a dental check-up. I just need one root canal and a cap at this time. The root canal will come about on Wednesday. It will be nice to have it over with.

Hope you all have a Happy Valentine's Day and that you men treat your wives well.
