Income Tax Preparation & Representation
I am now working from a home office. Address provided to clients only.

I didn't write much this season. I stayed busy and had no time to craft a post.

I'm taking a few days off and then will start on extensions.

I'm tentatively planning to go tent camping next week. Yes, tent camping. There are cabins I could rent but I realized that when I stay in a hotel, a cabin, or an Airbnb, I nest in and behave as if I were at home.

So, why not just stay home?

I'm opting for a different experience. I will still nest in because it's who I am. But, tent camping is a wholly different experience and takes more effort.

I can't remember the last time I tent camped. I want to make sure I can still do it.

I have no doubt I can.

Tax season has been put on hold for today.

I'm having some friends over for the Super Bowl. It should be a stress-free game because, although I'd prefer the Seahawks win, my panties won't be in a twist if they don't.

Last year, it was a stressful game and ended badly. Well....badly for us; it ended well for the Eagles.

I've made quite a bit of food and since it's such a beautiful day, I took a 55-in TV out on my deck.

I'm trying to learn how to make charcuterie. I forgot to leave room for crackers.

I'll get better at this.

Enjoy your day. I'll be back at my desk tomorrow.

This is ChatGPT's caricature of me.
It kept making me right-handed so I copied it and flipped it. Now I'm left-handed.

I have decided where I'm going to meet with clients on Thursday mornings in Overland Park. I need to do reconnaissance this week to make sure that it will work and that there are tables available that are relatively private.

Once I've determined that it will fit my needs, I will start booking appointments for February and March.

I'm excited. I think this is going to work really well. I will give you specifics once I have it nailed down.

Since moving my office to Lee's Summit in 2020, I come to Overland Park on Thursdays to meet with clients so they don't have to drive to Lee's Summit.

This was initially to help them transition but I enjoy getting out of the office half a day each week. Plus, I can see a lot of clients in a 4-hour period when moving them through every 15 minutes.

I had to come to Overland Park on an errand so I decided to verify the IHOP I have utilized for the last 5 years was open. I heard a rumor from a client that it was not.

And she was right, it is no longer open. I'm on the hunt for a place centrally located that won't mind if I sit and meet with tax clients for 4 hours every Thursday. I drink a lot of coffee, and I always leave a huge tip.

Don't suggest the library. They don't allow businesses to use their private roomsm. Since I subscribe to the "quiet in the library" theory, I also won't conduct tax business at one of their tables.

If you have any ideas, let me know. Although not ideal, it may have to be a fast food restaurant. Denny's is usually way too slammed with business.

See.ya.soon.

Way to go, Broncos!!! 🏈
What a game. I'm happy!

Back in San Diego. I disembark at 8:15 and head to the airport. That's the Holland America Nieuw Amsterdam pulling in alongside us.

In 2019, I was on that ship but it never left the dock. It had a broken azipod thruster. They refunded my money and gave me (and everyone) a free cruise.

I'll be happy to get home. I think the playoffs start tomorrow?

Sunrise off the coast of Baja California Sur. This was as good as it got. It was very chilly and windy this morning and I was not inclined to stand on the balcony to see if sunrise would put out for me.

Instead...I took this picture and called it good.

One more sleep on this ship then I'm flying back to Kansas City...where my heart is and always has been. See you soon.
