Filing taxes

 

Monday

I got up at 8. I made fiber gel, etc. I started a post for band and decided I needed a funny meme for handbells to go with it. So I spent probably several hours looking at music memes on Pinterest, but found none for handbells.

Then Chris wanted to know how much money I made last year for tax purposes. So I got out my contracts and cross-referenced them with what was on my computer. I made a list of numbers and gave him the total. Then he wanted to know how much money I gave to charity. So I made another list of what was on my computer. Another hour gone. He also wanted to know what I spent on cleaning supplies, but I had no list for that.

I made and ate breakfast. I read e-mail and messages. I watered the plants. I played my trombone. I looked up some hymn suggestions, then picked one from the binder. The other one wasn't in there, so I had to scan it and clean it up, and print it out on the old computer.

I took some niacin and read messages until the flush hit. Then I prepared the steam sauna and did some stretches and exercises. I steamed for 20 minutes, then wiped the sauna out and took a shower. I took some activated charcoal. I got dressed.

I went to the chapel early. I set up a table for the bells in the fellowship hall. Wilhelm helped me set up the bells and put out gloves. Saronna and I talked for a bit, then we realized Keli wasn't coming. John and Michele and Elizabeth came. I sent them to the fellowship hall to mark their music and practice the song. In the sanctuary, we played through the hymns, through the handbell song, and through Everybody wants to be a Cat.

Then I dismissed the band. I went to help the handbells practice since Caleb didn't show up. It went really well. Then I dismissed them. John helped me put the bell cases away. They left and I cleaned up the table, turned off the lights and locked the door.

I went home. I put supper in the oven. I read e-mail. When supper was ready, I ate while watching videos on how to make a twisting thread catcher. I worked on my blog. I made tea and we watched an episode of Criminal Minds.

I got on my laptop to see if we knew any of the actors from previous programs. I read e-mail and messages, then went to bed.
