Gotta love that

Gotta love WHAT??

Rain in mid-January, that's what. Especially here in New Hampshire, New England, and the Northeast in general, where it is supposed to be really cold, all of the time in the winter. One weather report I heard was that it was supposed to have approached 60 degrees Farenheit today. Not that I would know, working inside all day. 60??? A veritable heat wave!!! Bring it on.

Of course, if it gets to be 60 during the day come July/August, then that will be COLD!! And I will complain!! But for now, I'll take it.

While driving to my meeting tonight, amidst the rain, I saw two things that were absolutely amazing/stunning/fantastic: a beautiful winter sunset and a huge rainbow. I tried to get out my cell phone camera while I was driving, so that I could post pictures of it here for you all to see, but alas - by the time I found the camera in my bookbag, I had passed it. Not that I would have been able to aim the camera successfully while driving at 75 MPH...

But it was really cool.

Yes, I know that I drive too fast.

And another thing you gotta love (besides ME, silly!!) Well I love it anyway...

I got my tax software in the mail a few weeks ago and I finally got my W-2 form from my employer today. Yup - only one employer this year, instead of three or four. So I'm going to do my Federal and state taxes tomorrow night and e-file them. Yes, I know New Hampshire does not have state income tax. That's the bummer of living in NH and working in MA. I have to pay MA state taxes. And I won't get nearly all of it back, which is lousy, though I should... Before I know it I'll have my refunds in my hot little hands...

Oh, yes, before I forget (not that she'll ever read this BUT), Happy 41st to my older sister C.

I'm complaining about the rain here, but I shouldn't. If it had been snow, we'd be buried under it!!

Oh, taxes! Joy, joy. I hope I get lots of money back this year. Yea! only one employer for me too. Just last year, I think I had 4 W-2's. Not fun at all.

What's not drying up or cracking in Texas is going up in flames. If everyone would just go out in their yards and BLOW the rain toward Texas, we might get some relief.

LOVE sunsets! I wish you would have been able to capture it! But then again, while going 75, you would have probably killed yourself, so in retrospect, I'm glad you didn't. :)

The weather is definitely crazy here in NY as well. One day 60 degrees and the next, sub zero. It's insane.

I used to work in NJ, and lived in NY (still do) and I hated the tax deal with that too.
