April 9th 2015

What a miserable wet day.

Not so cold that you have to complain

but dreary enough to be uninspiring.

I knew today would be busy.

Packing door prizes for the crop,

straightening up for the weekend,

dealing with a grumpy John 

before they remove all his teeth saturday,

getting ready 

for the Kitchener scrapfest day-trip tomorrow,

and getting the taxes done.

I hate getting the taxes done.

Our files are not hard to do

or take a lot of work,

its the COST!

I pay $100 to find out I am getting nothing back.

Judy pays $40 to find out the same thing.

although John gets a significant amount back 

the cost of a truckers taxes is really high.

I am pleased that I asked 

for extra $$ to be taken off each cheque

last year.

It made a big difference

and I never even noticed the $50 per pay cheque!

Tonight was a whirlwind 
of organizing the crop's door prizes.
So many wonderful things have been donated 
and collected by our team,
the April 25th crop is sure to be a success!

Judy and I spoiled ourselves 
and had popcorn shrimp for supper tonight.

Now it is time to pack up my bag for tomorrow
and relax a little.
I can hear Archie and Jughead calling me.

Good night from John Street
and an excited scrapfest-er!
