Things I Never Thought I’d Say

I change my mind quite a bit, you see. This way I can remember what I used to think.

How much can I deduct? March 27, 2008

I’ve been wondering… what is the allowed amount you can deduct for charitable contributions of clothing and household goods?

I don’t bother with garage sales. I usually just give my children’s old clothing away to friends. This year I gave much to Goodwill. So how much can I deduct? $2 per pair of jeans? $5 per pair? There has to be a list somewhere, right?

Time to Google.

Ah-Ha!  The Salvation Army to the rescue!

There is a bat in my walls, and it’s creeping me out. It sounds like it is just on the other side of my bed. It can’t get out; I know it can’t. At least not without crawling down the interior of the walls and flying up through the basement like the others have. Eeek!

We have got to call Critter Control this spring!!!

I made cosmopolitans again last night.  Yummy!  The triple sec version, because $38.00 for a fifth of Cointreau is absurd!

I have determined that fresh lime juice is much tastier than Rose’s bottled juice.  Made it taste a little too much like Kool-Aid.
