IRS worries

We are still working on our alarms. They aren’t working as well as they should. We were up late, ate breakfast and walked the lake at 9:30. I published our Mother’s Day pictures and pictures of the girl’s dresses before going to Lowes to get some plastic to use as barrier for grass under our mulch patch. We also bought a rug for the deck before coming home. I made patties of the ground chuck I had bought yesterday and cooked them on our Holland grill. We took them to the neighbor’s freezer to stay until the party next Monday. I also transplanted some “monkey grass” while the burgers cooked. We ate one of the hamburgers for lunch and then I cleaned the grill. I went to the neighbor’s to use the phone to call the IRS. I received a notice yesterday saying we had not declared all of our income in 2007. The agent was nice and told me what to do to stall until we returned to Texas where our returns are. I had also contacted the woman who helped me prepare the return, and she e-mailed me the copy from her computer. I will try to understand what went wrong. I must communicate with the agency this week to get the process started. I have also called our financial broker because we are thought to have not put a cost basis on some stocks we sold. We took a short nap before I called the Casterline’s to invite them for a bratwurst supper. They came and I gave then the Kahlua and onions we had brought from Mexico. I watched the news after we covered some of our plants. A frost is predicted for tonight, dropping below 36, the old record low for this date.
