I Got a BooBoo

On the morning of Valentine's Day I tripped over an awry area rug in our home and did a major faceplant. I still look like I lost a prize-fight (black eye), but I am so fortunate. I didn't break anything... not even my glasses. But I am recovering from a mild concussion; the doctor's office said it could take a couple weeks before I feel normal. I hope to return to work this coming Monday, but we'll see.

Tracy's Tax Service

I prepared my father's income tax returns a week ago today. I had so much fun (ha ha) that I did ours, too. (In the past I've done Matt & Emily's also, but their tax situation is more complicated now.)

The two sets of returns (federal and state for Dad and Lew & I) were all accepted by the taxing authorities, and all of the balances due/refunds have been exchanged.  E-filing is great.

Tracy's Tax Service was open for one whole day.

Closed until next year!

A Belated Happy New Year!

I haven't completely abandoned this blog yet, but my posts are by no means prolific.  Maybe I can do a better job in 2026... but that's if I have something to say, haha!

Something I have kept up with is posting the books I've read (click on Reading Lists on the right-hand side).  It contains links to my annual reading lists starting with 2015! I just added the link for 2026, which already has a couple entries.

Peace and joy to you all!
