C'mon Man

Went to bed early, took my rope a dope medicine so no jimmys. We both did make midnight as did Gracie. Woke up at 2 to Christine on the phone. And it was not Megs.

Relaxed all day. Megs got home late this afternoon. Was going to go to Mark and Kim's and see Don and probably Kelly, but just did not feel like driving that far, so just had a few drinks down the street and watched the first half of the Rose Bowl. Staying away from beer.

Wisconsin has got to wake up. Maybe they will wear TCU down, but not good so far. They are not dominating like I thought, if it was a close game, I predicted that they would lose. C'mon Sconi.

Big Packers game tomorrow, late game. Falcons early which is good, two games for the last Sunday. Going to miss football, although with the NFL Network it never goes away.

Here is hoping the Badgers pull it out, Happy New Year

F___ Favre

Ranting - should not be surprised that the NFL gave Brent a lenient penalty. He has never been caught doing things like this before (although there are plenty of Brett Favre stories out there), but, still, because everyone kisses his ass, he got off lighly. I don't care that she did not report this right away, once it was being investigated, it does not matter. If any of you saw Mooch on the NFL Network, and his heart felt plea to Brett to retire and walk off in the sunset, it was good and so true. DONE.

Busy day, met with the in-laws about their finances and that went well. Did not get much else done other than a couple of meetings. One with a payroll service that was actually a waste of time unless they happen to bring me a client somehow. Christine got our largest monthly bookkeeping client yesterday, so that was awesome. And she got her hair done today, and it looks hot. Mama Mia. And Grace did it, stayed all night at Izzy's. Long time coming though. And Megs, well, still trying to get her to come to the office.

Walked again today. Active 2 tomorrow. Also plunged into ordering prepared meals to keep at the office or home. I was looking at it on Christine's computer, she mentioned it this morning, so got the OK, and ordered the first week. Can always stop and then maybe try another. Went with Good Measures because its local, but there are about three or so to choose from. All about the same price. Gonna give it a try. This way I will actually eat breakfast and lunch, since it will be so easy, its calorie controlled and good for you, so should help in dropping the pounds. And I do not think it will really cost me much money because of the money we will be saving on food at home that I would eat, plus eating out which is really a lot.

Have to get up early to finish up a client who is coming in to sign their returns. Other than that, not much, so hopefully I can get a few things done. Poker tomorrow at the clubhouse, Christine is making lasagna. Thanks for that.

Busted Water Main

Stayed up late last night so got up late this morning. Did not have an appointment all day, or so I thought. At 11 a client walked in, I had forgotten about him until he arrived. No big deal. Rest of the day got some work done. Around noon heard from several people about a water line break in the complex, checked it out with the city water guys, they shut off the water to about 6 buildings. Called a plumber from a web search, right next door practically, and he got there this morning and was already digging this PM. He is Jim the Plumber. So that should be fixed in the AM

Lots of appointments at the office tomorrow, want to finish couple of returns though. And still working on my to do list, mostly moving things around and reviewing it. Was at the office until almost 8.

Christine played trivia, Grace is at Izzy's (hopefully for the night) and Megan is here with Gabby her college roommate. I worked out on the PlayStation, and it wore me out.

Thank God we are not traveling. We would all be so crabby. And good job Vikings, you helped the Pack. Looks like Bears and Falcons as top seeds and the Packers go to Philly against Vick.

Lots going on in the world, but nothing that I care to comment on. I know everyone is looking forward to 2011 as for most people 2010 sucked. I ain't complaining.

My knees hurt

Went to work late today, got a few things done but was frustrated with a project. Wasted part of the day. Met with a lady that was referred to me, who may have about 20 to 25 corporate returns and possibly that many personal returns plus who knows, maybe some retirement plans. She is breaking off from her current gig and doing her own thing. That was good. Have to get some billing out, god knows I have the work to do.

Went to workout this morning, walked Leita. I have this program that is GPS for working out and it tracks your distance, time and average speed and then automatically downloads to the web. Pretty cool. Have the same things for Active 2. Ate better today, but not earlier enough or enough calories. Gotta eat breakfast and lunch. And more water.

Man, I thought the Falcons had that game. They should have but they did fuck up and turn the ball over twice when they were about to score. But in the long run, they would not have won 12 games in a row and win the Super Bowl, so good that they lost, will make them more hungry.

Headed to bet. Izzy is over, so that means I sleep downstairs. Ugh.

Beginning of the New Year

Got a bug this morning, and thought I would workout, did 45 minutes on the treadmill. Then bought Active 2 for the Playstation to see if that would keep me motivated and did half a workout on that. Gotta work up to that.

Been using the heck out of Christine's Krueig coffee maker. Must have had 12 cups of coffee since yesterday morning and tea. Did an order online since we get two free boxes.

PACKERS!! Played awesome, should make the playoffs if they can beat the Bears at home. And if they do make the playoffs, they will be very dangerous.
