Sales Tax is Evil!



4:15pm- I hate the new way we have to report sales tax here. Now the state wants us to show every town, on a list,where we've done work...they don't want just totals anymore...noooo. What was that I heard about cutting down on paperwork? Ridiculous!!!


Going out this evening to eat dinner with some friends we've known since high school. I think I'll just sit there glassy eyed. I'm hardly ever in a bad mood, and I don't think I would consider this a bad mood. I just can't understand why the government won't pay attention! It's one of those things that eat at you. I've gotta stop it! OHAMMMMMMM......I need to be on "Jules'" beach.
7:56pm- Well just got back from a very nice dinner with the friends. I wasn't glassy eyed either! Very enjoyable. Lots of chatter and maybe some plans to take out the 5th wheel for a short trip to Fredericksburg. Girls can do some Christmas shopping, and the guys can just relax. Sounds good. SO, guess I'll put this old puppy to bed. Y'all have a wonderful evening and a better tomorrow.
