The little things

 It's the little things that really bring satisfaction to me. That sounds a bougie but it really is the way I feel every once and again. I spent the evening listening to the Jazz lose their almost last game for the season finishing up my kid letters for the month. Actually the printer was out of ink. I had my caregiver this morning popping a new ink cartridge and away it went printing like a winner. I got my letters printed and the envelopes all the while keeping an eye on my wash or actually by that time I got to the caregiver had thrown him into the dryer and I had finished or we had finished the first dry and I started the clothes on the second dry. When I went back and checked on them about 40 minutes later the second dry was finished but the clothes were still kind of damp and I was not going to invest another 75 cents and 45 minutes to sit through another depressing dryer cycle that doesn't dry the clothes like they should. I reported this last week but obviously nothing was done. There's actually more to that story than I have time or the drive to write about tonight. Perhaps the darkest part of my day was listening to and watching the Jazz lose again. I'll leave it right there or less I'll be redundant. And finally I guess I folded the clothes and hung up the clothes that needed hanging and got that taken care of. So it's been a fairly productive day for the old man. It certainly relieved some stress getting those letters out. I'm still semi-focused on IRS and what they might do to me if anything. Every time I bring this up to my caregiver she just looks at me and says you don't have to. She feels because I make so little money that I don't have to file. Quite frankly I don't know and the person I've been going to or wanting to go to hasn't been available but starting now I have 14 days left before the 1040s have to go in. Guess I could be a tax cheat for the rest of my life and look over my shoulder and be afraid to answer the phone and are open the mailbox. I'm sure it knock on my door give me a cardiac arrest since nobody ever knocks on my door.

Spring has finally moved into the area which means that temperature has dropped significantly in this area like 10 to 15° difference which is amazing. Luckily for the rest of the week I don't have to leave the apartment except for perhaps tomorrow for coffee social just don't like a real life meeting. I supposedly have my buddy coming in for lunch tomorrow but we'll just go to the big room and have lunch there. That should be fun I look forward to having my lunches with this guy. He's really taking time to hang out with me. It's been a pretty good evening for me I'm about ready to turn in for the night. I don't know what it is but the pain I've been under the last couple weeks seems to be less tonight than usual and I don't know why. I won't question it just maybe get to bed early read a little bit and zone out for the night..
