Taxes Done

The good news from yesterday is that our taxes are done for another year. Even better news is that we will get a refund! The combination of buying a new home, buying a couple vehicles and having some unusual medical expenses resulted in a banner year for our taxes. I hope the IRS is quick with payment.

I also got my hearing aid back. I thought I would get an entirely new one but the Audiologist only sent the earpiece back for the repair and kept the main part - receiver and processor - in the office. Shucks. The new earpiece I received to replace the lost one is a different color. They are now making the earpiece in clear plastic versus the old flesh color. It doesn't matter as it is always in my ear anyway so nobody knows the color. I'm just happy to hear (mostly) everything again.

We have decided to take some boxes to the storage unit ourselves. That will save some time - and money - with the movers when they come and it will give us a chance to place some things where we know where to find them in the storage unit. That mainly applies to the Christmas items. This way, we will not have to search through all the contents in storage to find all our Christmas stuff. There are many, many total boxes to move, so it will still be a long day moving on the 27th. At least, that is the day we have scheduled right now.

We went to Pioneer RV yesterday to inform them that we will be arriving late. We changed the reservation from the 17th (today) to the 24th. That still will not be possible as the RV dealer probably won't be finished until at least the 26th. The dates are all up in the air right now...
