Bits and Pieces
Jan. 1st, 2026 09:48 pmIt was New Year's Day and I went over to a friend's house for a few hours in the afternoon to play some games, which was a good time. Gretchen stayed home because her knees have been bothering her greatly in the last few days. With luck, that will improve tomorrow.
K has to head back to school on Sunday and there are things to do between now and then. Mostly, this involves picking things up and putting them away. We *may* decide to take the tree down on Saturday when there will be more hands to put everything away. Ok, mostly there will be more younger knees to carry things up and down from the basement. :)
I have started work on the Dodeka taxes for 2025. I'd like to get these filed early this year for a variety of reasons. We'll see how it goes.
And the long-range forecast is for high temperatures in the mid-40s in Chicago next Thursday. If that forecast holds, my chances of being able to get off to GAFilk with minimum weather problems are excellent. I am keeping my fingers crossed.
