786 BRICKS LEFT AND 5 DAYS TO GO --- AND I HAVE A FEW QUICKPICS TO ENTER SO WE ARE GETTING DOWN THERE....KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK... I AM TOLD PAYPAL IS A NICE ADDITION --- I TRIED IT MYSELF AND IT WORKED
WE HAVE (MENTALLY ) DESIGNED A BULLETIN BOARD FOR THE FREEZER WHICH WILL GIVE A RUNNING TOTAL OF SOLD... I WILL WORK ON IT TODAY...SHOULD BE FUN...
I HAVE GOT IT AS FAR AS THE LIVING ROOM WHERE IT STANDS A BETTER CHANCE OF GETTING DONE NEXT TO THE FIREPLACE...
DREMMEL IS THE WORD OF THE DAY... MY FAVORITE- AND MOST USEFULL TOOL IS A DREMMEL GRINDER/SAW SORT OF THING-- THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH IT IS IT HAS A TENDENCY TO HIDE. ALL DREMMELS HIDE...
I WISH THEY WERE PAYING ME TO SAY THIS ... BUT I HAVE A BUNCH OF DREMMEL THINGS AND THEY ALL WORK NICELY.. WHEN I CAN FIND THEM.
WHAT BRINGS THIS TO MIND IS BAILEY'S TOENAILS ARE DISGRACEFUL... AND IF I TAKE OUT THE NAIL CLIPPERS, SHE GLARES AT ME SOMETHING FIERCE...
I DO HAVE A DREMMEL GRINDER.. ALL I HAVE TO DO IS FIND IT.
*************
SHEILA SAT AROUND LAST NIGHT DISCUSSING THE HOLIDAY PARTY SHE USUALLY THROWS FOR CRANNEY EMPLOYEES.. I MUST SAY SHE HAS AN INCREDIBLE KNOWLEDGE OF PARTY GAMES FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT QUITE SOBER. I HAD NEVER HEARD ABOUT THE ONE WHERE YOU CARRY A POTATO ACROSS A ROOM AND DEPOSIT IT IN A BUCKET. SOUNDS SIMPLE ENOUGH... EXCEPT IT IS WHERE YOU HAVE TO CARRY IT THAT IS THE CHALLANGE.. I THINK SHE CALLED IT TURKEY SQUAT....
*******
NOW FOR MY ACCOUNTING // TAX PROBLEMS OF THE DAY--
I HAVE NOT PAID MUCH ATTENTION TO THIS COLLECTION OF PAPERWORK IN YEARS... THERE ARE TOO MANY WORDS FOR ME TO UNDERSTAND...I JUST LEFT IT TO " THE ACCOUNTING FIRM"---- WHO NEVER FILED NY STATE TAX.
I AM PAYING MORE ATTENTION NOW....
NY STATE HAS BEEN VERY KIND IN ACCEPTING ME AS A CANDIDATE FOR THIS VOLUNTARY DISCLOSURE BIT -- WHICH ALLOWS ME TO STRAIGHTEN OUT 3 YEARS AND GO FORWARD...--
MY PANIC HAS BEEN THAT UNTIL I SAW ALL THE 14 SHEETS OF PAPER PER YEAR THAT I HAVE TO FILL OUT, I WAS NOT SURE NY STATE RECOGNIZED CHARITY DONATIONS... FORTUNATELY THEY DO-- AND I AM IN THE CLEAR.. I THINK.. I NEED MY 2013 IRS FORM--- AND I FIND IT IS NOT DONE YET....
PROBLEM BEING THE ACCOUNTING FIRM HAS NOT DONE 2013 YET-- AND WHEN YOU HAVE A CREDIT BALANCE FORWARD THE IRS DOES NOT SEEM TO MIND..
HERE'S THE RUB... MASSACHUSETTS DOES NOT ALLOW DEDUCTIONS FOR CHARITY-- SO EVEN WITH QUARTERLY ESTIMATE PAYMENTS, I AM PROBABLY IN TROUBLE WITH MASSTAX.
I REALLY HAVE HAD NO TROUBLE DEALING WITH THE IRS THRU MY SOMEWHAT COLORFUL PAST. WHEN YOU THINK YOU ARE RIGHT-- AND STICK TO YOUR GUNS, THEY HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO BACK OFF.
NOT SO WITH MASSACHUSETTS..
THEY ARE HATEFUL.
TO BE CONTINUED...
******
IT WAS DECIDED THAT MAKING LISTS AND PAPERWORK IN GENERAL IS DETRIMENTAL TO THE CREATIVE PROCESS.

THE REPORTS CONTINUE TO COME IN ... THANK YOU !!

Hi Carlene.Can't watch mail call with HeyDawg around. We were watching and listening recently. Hey was reacting to your scary voice. He got off his couch and was looking for you behind the computer. He was also reacting to your dogs in the background barking. He soon began barking at our computer every time one of your dogs barked. When he got off his couch and started barking louder, we had to shut you off. Sorry.
Woof,
Hey, Gay & Jerry
