I think (and it may be a guess) that I am gradually catching up to everything. If things go as planned, tomorrow my helper will finish plowing and everything will be fresh plowed or fresh sprayed. Ready for a rain.

I complained to Pat that it seems there is never time for what I want or need to do.

When Monday is behind me I will be a happy camper.

I have to say kudos to my friend and accountant (Tom) for bailing me out once again. For five years I have been on a "Timely filing" requirement by the US Treasury. I can already tell you, I'm extending next year!

Monday I will have met all the terms of my offer in compromise from June 5, 2007.

Whew!

I took Memama for her last scheduled hearing appointment on Thursday. Afterward we ate at Red Lobster and then met with our travel agent. I am trying to finalize plans for the Washington trip to Shelby and Larissa's wedding.

I probably spent four hours on the computer shopping for rooms for our group of 23. Where we are going is a resort area and there is a wide range of pricing. From the most expensive to the most economical you can figure half. Very frustrating. The difference between luxury suite and premier is $100.

By next weeks end I plan to have this project done and in the books.

Busy, busy week coming up.

Tuesday, Memama'a appointment with skin cancer doctor.
Wednesday, Memama's appointment at the Coumadin clinic.
Thursday, Memama's appointment with the vision field specialist and her and Chris with Dr. Bowman (cornea transplant specialist).

Not realizing I was going to be in Dallas on Thursday, I scheduled a consult for lasik surgery on Friday.

But before the busy week, a little fun.

Rian and his friend Paul are picking me up in the morning and we are headed to Texas Motor Speedway for NASCAR Sprint Cup. Race begins at 6 Saturday evening. Should be fun. Meeting Colby, Coach and Chance at the track.

By the way, congratulations to Colby, he is being inducted into the Gordon Wood Hall of Champions April 28th.

Very tired, ready to hit the hay and get rested up for RACEDAY!

Have a weekend!

FATHER, thank YOU for a week of progress. I pray for a good trip and enjoyable trip to the races. I ask that YOU help me to complete my Washington trip plans. YOU are good.
