looking for whales
Today is my birthday. This is an honest blog - so I'll admit to being 64. As a part of being 64, I resolve to wear no clothes with elastic waistbands or drawstrings outside of the house. Also resolve to dump all my tee-shirts except for solid color ones that actually fit. I will try to avoid the "dumpy frumpy" look for another year.
I ordered up a train pass for my European trip. I don't think it will save any money. But, it will save hassle. And, if it sets in to raining - I can ride the train all over in quest of better weather.
Started up the taxes. Seems that I owe about $2,300. And that is just to the feds. And what did I do wrong? Well, I earned more money. And, for some reason - I gave less money to my charitable trust. So, Uncle Sam gets more. Worse things can happen than owing more taxes.
