Skipped my bike to mess with my clothes. I needed to collect more discards for next garbage day. So I went thru my four mesh wash bins. Dumped a pink shorts that had ink stain. I put away heavy sweaters and fleece pants. Weather changing. Not bitter cold.

I dumped a cranberry and white purse and l.l. Bean huge canvas bag. They were dirty on the bottom and Bean bag looked dirty inside. It is extremely study but I was able to fold it down.

Went in closet to sort clothes stack. I dumped this one horrid loose pants that Mr x for some inexplicable reason loved. I humored him for some years keeping it and occasionally wearing it for his pleasure. But his wearing of that yellow sweatshirt to actual shreds really affected me. I don't want to be that person. I know too many folks wearing things to shreds. When they don't need to. So every week I'll continue to toss a personal bag of my junk. Till I can't find anymore. I'm targeting clothes and big things. My clothes are the main perpetrator. Every season I'd go thru this tremendous chore of swapping out clothes. Hopefully it'll go better.

I haven't done my reg desky cause of taxy. My bills are piling up. But I'm out of Verizon! Every so often I bring that to mind to marvel at. It is a sad state of affairs when their security method is so Byzantine that even their clerk can't get me back ol. It was unbelievable. I'm glad, I suppose, for having experience as it was a learning one. I added to my repertoire.

Was reading mint mobile reviews and customer service seem abysmal. That's not good.

I'm getting ready for my daily lie down. Turned on the heating pad. I can't sleep anymore cause of the clang bang gang. They're on their 5th dumpster.

Day 18 of taxy. I copied the final 1040. I ate too many mini Hershey's. I put the rest in the freezer. The pounding makes me jittery and I mindlessly pop them.

It was Friday omelet. Mr x had his beer. He's drowsing in his sleeping bag. I read some folks in Texas erecting tents in the LR. I never thought of that but it would certainly be warmer. Someone said it was 60• in tent and 45• in LR. That 45• beats the 52• I've encountered.

I'm sleepy. Maybe from the choc. I really need the slogging exercise. I'm out of shape after 4 Mo's inside. Just a few more days or so and taxy will be history.

Under DR table practically empty. Next the statues etc on top. The trash notice hasn't come. Maybe they've curtailed cause of virus. I read youngest kids in our town slated to begin school again. Before the upper grades.

Mr x watching some English detective show. There are no commercials so he's quite occupied. It's warmer right now. I'm not even wearing Sox or a jacket yet. I read someone in Texas was complaining their house went down to 52• I know what that feels like. That's when our furnace turns on. That is pretty darn cold. Amazingly furnace hasn't gone on once this winter. Having the space heater really helps and Mr x and his insomnia stay in the living room. He has the heat on so house doesn't drop too low.

Now what's my prob. I can't get my devices to connect to WiFi. They did before. I've been going thru settings. No luck so far.

The 1040 came. We're coming along finely. Maybe I can get some good taxy done tomorrow. I ate too much chocolate today. But I was dealing with Verizon. I can't believe it's over. I obsessed over the whole thing. I've put the packet away. Will wait for the last bill.

Think it's time for a nice bracing ensure.

I'm out of Verizon! Only took ten min. I decided not to mention not being able to access ol. I told her I couldn't afford it. Not much you can say to that. She did, half heartedly, ask if I was interested in anything else. Not bloody likely!

My Verizon was a postpaid account. I had bought my tablet thru them on a two year contract. Never again. They had access to my bank account for payment. I want prepaid service now. Monthly, preferred. I was reading a thread about service providers tho. Mint was mentioned many times. But for best price you have to pay for the year up front. I'll have to see. I'm a bit nervous. I'm on 2nd tier now. Postpaid accounts get first dibs. I've noticed the TracFone data connection is really slow. I may let that phone expire in two mos. Use the 3 gbs and min up. I could call bro.

Well, I have to process the fact Verizon is off my back. The prob of not being able to access. Gone. I get to bundle the stack of Verizon bills, passwords, notes and put away. Me so happy. Me could cry.

Now I'm going to slowly decompress. Talking on the phone is a big deal for me. I did everything I could not to. I also could've ported out number to TracFone but decided it was quicker n cheaper just to call.

I need to treat myself now with a piece of chocolate or cup o mud. Or both.

I'm kind of nervous. I'm about to call Verizon and cancel my service. Will they give me a hard time? I tried today to access my account and, predictably, it didn't work. I am so sick of Verizon. I've got my info ready. I'll be doing it with an accompaniment of classical music and the clang bang gang. I hate the anxiety feeling. It's the same like in class when they were going around the room and you'd be counting how many more folks till you.

I also renewed my TracFone for another two mos.. And did day 17 of taxy. More copying and checking. I started a wrinkle in Time and this disc stylus does indeed work well. Shocking.

I'm running a serious disc stylus test here. I removed the useless screen protector on phone. It seems to glide quite nicely. The disc is quite small. Very intuitive to use. The tip seems a lil flexible. I have a pale pink and white one. There's a magnetic cap but it's a lil tricky to put on. I'm storing it in a cup.

Is this the answer? Third time's the charm? The rubber tips didn't work. The fiber tips didn't work. I was quite dismayed. I had a new phone but couldn't type on it. And now I can. Amazing. The last option was going to be a digital one. There's nothing else.

Day 16 taxy is in the bag. I used the stand up heater bro lent me. It was colder today. I didn't do that much, unfortunately. I'm putting the excess papers away. Futzed with sorting. Not finished with 540 yet. 1040 draft looking good. Booklet hasn't come by mail yet. I want to use their yellowed, recycled forms. It's ugly but thinner. My copy paper is thick and white. Too much for the envelope. I wonder if my kitchen scale can weigh letters.

Mr x had a dental appt. The hygienist said they're short handed. Some have quit. They don't want to be near an open mouth. She said all at the office had the vax.

Oh, I had $7 Amazon credit for a Kindle ebook. I got a wrinkle in time. I didn't know it was a series. There's also supposed to be a movie.

This stylus working really well. You need a more delicate touch tho. Have to keep it upright. The other ones you can use the sides. I still need to try it on my other devices.

This is being written by new disc stylus. So far it seems to work quite fine. I'll test later. But it's day 16 of taxy. The clang bang gang is here in all their lid banging glory. Back at you later.

We're wondering why the clang bang gang hasn't appeared to darken our door way. They skipped Yest which was a holiday. It was mahvelous. Simply mahvelous. Mr x just left for trader Joe's. I'm up supremely early. Mr x just found out I plan to dump treadmill. It came about because we saw the boss contractor truck pull up and a guy throw his personal junk in nabes dumpster. Mr x said Corona Joe said he and we have permission to dump stuff too. I queried a lil further and Mr x asked what item are you thinking about. I said treadmill. We agreed it's too heavy for us. We'd have to it heft it over. Now those workers could. They carried that bathtub over. I even considered paying them. But Mr x had the convo about moving their car. You can't cross a burned bridge. Plus I'm not ready. Eh. It can wait. I had to tell him that's why I've been clearing under desky. He had said we'd have to move table.

Mr x hates stuff. And I'm from a rampant hoarder clan. He asked you're not replacing treadmill. I said no. I don't want any large item either.

So I want to look at Verizon stuff. Maybe I can make phone call today. Every day it's costing me since service is so bad. I can't use it.

But I have to start day 15 of taxy.

Yest I saw the new house one of my pals may get. Really nice. And in sacto where gf lives. He said his area and another one are getting bad with crime. The other one he mentioned is where my bro has a rental. And that's why I didn't want to move there either. But I'm impressed how fast he's moving. When I consider how lame I am in stuff like making a dang phone call, getting a washer, or a fence fix. That is not my forte. I wish it were.

I read Texas is having a bad freeze. And hotels are jacking the price up. A reg room was $1500 some were more. And that was Ramada Inn. A brand name. How could they price gauge during an emergency? When vendors on Amazon tried to do that last year, they were quickly put down. Member the high sanitizer prices? Tho I don't see what the $6 cake mix is about. That's their jurisdiction.

Well got to get going. Have a good one!

I have a headache. Rats. Quality of life really goes down. I think my Ch went low. I haven't been testing. But once slogging starts I may have to. Better count how many strips I have left.

I read Iowa and Montana were rescinding the mask mandate. Iowa is where gf plans to move. She's an avid mask wearer. Of course she works at Amazon. They had cases there.

Spent almost 6 hours feeding Wally. He was wetting like crazy. I have about five towels/tees stuffed under him. This is ridiculous. I have to get a new washer.

Wally was my folks machine. Wally Maytag. Wally is 31 years old. That's tremendous for a washer. Maytag dryer 31 years too. Had to have a repair guy come in once for him.

So many clothes I washed. Mr x was amazed how high the piles went. It's been 2 weeks.

Tomorrow I return to taxy. Hopefully I can get the draft done. I checked and tax tables still weren't done. Well, I can run final copies, copy, proofread. Write out envelopes etc. So lame, tax board.

On Nextdoor they were talking of crime. Saying perps getting bolder. There was arson on main st? I hadn't heard that. Guy was saying soon they'd be turning to break into homes. He got a gun. I have pepper spray here. It was from hiking.

Maybe I'll try a pain pill and bath.

Oh, forgot to say I finally ordered a disc stylus. A pink and a white one. And my $5 credit was applied from the Amazon ol survey I filled out. We'll find out if it works on my slippery phone and iPad.

It was blessedly quiet today. No bangs. Don't know about tomorrow. It's a holiday. It's day 14 of taxi. I rechecked a confusing worksheet and it made sense today. Couldn't finish 540 draft cause the tax tables aren't available ol. That's cute. Luckily the 540 tax part is the last part. I'll work around it. More checking tomorrow. Whoops. Scratch that. Rats. I forgot about Wally. He's been banging his lid to show his displeasure.

Was searching for disc styluses again. I have noticed new contenders. There are some brilliant colours and the body is showing changes. They are putting split colours. I saw a white and blue pattern. Like old fashioned dish. I threw them in my cart to vet. I was using iPad to pull up tax instructions and was using two styluses to peck at the letters. I need a workable stylus!

Nothing else new. I really like Twitter. I like checking in on folks lives. And watching the animal vids. Think a choc ensure is calling my name.
