TravelingChris Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Good morning! I don't like the weather forecast for this week-- really cold--20's every night and not just high 20;s either, two or three days with highs in 30's. yuck. Dh has floating holidays because they added Juneteenth and so I told him to not take today off since it is a miserable day and who wants to have a holiday in a gloomy, cold day with nothing special to do? I do have my delayed dental appointment. I was supposed to have it in late Dec but he was on vacation. Then we were snowed out, Today no snow but I am glad my appt is at 11 because we had black ice this morning. Do laundry Read book not sure what is for dinner. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKL Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Happy Monday! I canceled the one appointment I had due to the snow. Hoping to enjoy a slow pace on this national holiday. Though of course, I'll still work. Done: Woke up and went outside to help the housemate who fell in the snow and couldn't get up. Cleaned my room / made my bed. Did some reading. Yoga etc. Woke up the girls so they will sleep tonight. Had a banana and a coffee. Cleaned in the kitchen. Folded and put away laundry. Caught up on emails, news, calendar, social media, and electronic school stuff. Canceled my chiro appointment. Left a message for the snow plow guy. A little file organizing. To do: More coffee. More reading. Client work. Play outside with the pup & other pup stuff. Map the fuse box with the kids. Online church with the kids. Reading with the kids. Some health stuff with the kids. Whatever else gets done. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which reminds me that I need to check my checking account and see if we got our refund. The where is my refund isn't working anymore, however 6 million returns haven't been processed. They got our on June 6th and the last time I checked in early Dec, it was still in process, according to where is my refund. What I don't know is if they do not refund us before we send in this years return, do we claim the refund we never got???? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No dental issues at all- so happy Do laundry- still doing- have to go downstairs and deal with the dried, if dried and check whether the relaundered ones are now actually clean Read book-have been doing on and off not sure what is for dinner.- spaghetti and meatballs Other things I have done=figured out why the neurologist had called me- I have a nerve study tomorrow morning I also renewed all my kids and their spouses AAA memberships--- I had an adrenal crash around Dec 15th and haven't recovered until really this last weekend- slowly recovering- and so I didn't get all their Christmas presents and I really have no idea what presents I got from whom. Still need to probably do some more renewals but that will be tomorrow or in the coming days Also actually put together my medicine box and took my Dupixent shot. Still to Do Finish laundry[-both check if clothes are dry and if so fold, or do dryer some more, and check if relaundered clothes are actually clean now Get clothes ready for tomorrow Check my bank account and see if IRS sent our refund\ Read 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoutTN Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Dinner was good. Guys went to Scouts - very glad bc Ds needed to be with people. Three quiet days at home is wearing for an extrovert! Reading tonight. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Played out in the knee-deep snow with the pup. That is a workout. 🙂 The plow guy still hasn't come, but he called and promised to come later. School is canceled for tomorrow, yay! Had a fuss that sucked up an hour I had planned to use otherwise. We won't be getting to the fuse box today, but maybe tomorrow. Trying to get some reading done. I committed to myself that I'd finish two in-process books this week, but that was before I realized how much time that was likely to require. I only have until Thursday, because of weekend plans. So I am trying to find a bunch of reading time before then. It doesn't help that I can't sit normally and I can't see very well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom31257 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 My friend came and stayed for about 15-20 minutes since they were on their way back home. It was nice to see her! Finished my Zoom sessions. Made the meal plan and we won't need much in the way of groceries until later this week. Dh and I went out to dinner at a local burrito place. Made potato soup for dh to have for lunch the next two days; I won't be home to make dinner tomorrow night. Walked about 35 minutes continue watching Clickbait on Netflix (I'm hooked and binging it!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LifeLovePassion Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 (edited) Worked on polying a wood extension table that DH and I made for my sewing machine yesterday. Organized some paperwork. Ring fit Followed up on a couple of job search emails. Tomorrow: see if anymore poly is needed on extension table, make Dr appointment, look into college options for high school enrollment with oldest, run to Costco, pick up a friend and then drop her off on our way to the dentist, cutting quilt sashing, phone call appointment at 10am.

TravelingChris Posted January 18, 2022 Author Share Posted January 18, 2022 Checked if IRS sent us the money they owe us- NO. We must be one of the 6 miliion whose returns from last year have still not been processed. I have to get in touch with my senator because this is outrageous. My return, though we don't do the standard deduction but rather itemized, is actually very straightforward. We only have my dh's work income, retirement income and small amounts of interest and profits from mutual funds. No alimony issues or child credits or self employment or changes of employment midyear or anything like that. And our refund is only due to the fact that we turned our tax return about 20 days late and so we had already earlier sent a check for 500 to cover what we may owe and it turned out that we didn't owe 500 but rather 382. Folded one load and will fold a small load soon. Chose clothes and put them in my bathroom Going to go watch final season of the Expanse.
