Internal Revenue Service

Just when I thought my day could not be any worse...... Dosed the dogs, prepared lunch and got Drew off to work. That's when I noticed there was no firewood for the stove tonight (thanks, Honey). I bundle up and go out and gather wood in between phone calls. It has actually been a good day for reservations. In between attending to my four-legged children (did I forget to mention that crazy cat ate some pizza and fritos and yakked all that up) I decide to try to get some sewing done. Sewing is like therapy, it calms me. Nothing makes me happier than creating something from a mere scrap of cloth. Off I go to my sanctuary...only to discover the halogen lamp has a blown bulb. I don't have a replacement and can't leave because I am expecting a traveler. I try using the overhead light, but there are too many shadows cast on my work table. Okay, it wasn't meant to be. I will read. Can't concentrate, so I turn the TV on and continue to field calls from telemarketers. Mondays are the worst. Phone rings again and prepared to politely announce that I am not interested, I answer. It is the IRS. We were audited for 2006. They have decided to audit 2007 now. I hope the dogs finish pooping by dark, cause I was to go to bed and hide from the world...........
