Yesterday Lori put up some more Christmas lights! The house is looking good. I stood in line at the post office as we had a notice in our p.o. box of a package that arrived. It was the second box set of Metallica’s Black Album. One arrived the other day. I had asked Renne at the bands foundation if she could get me a couple as they sold out in minutes a few months ago and were selling for upwards of $1000 each! Not sure if she sent them to me or if James did as I didn’t pay for them, they just arrived. We’ll give one each to the boys as they’re big-time collector’s items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ty went boarding yesterday and then worked. He works at 12:30 today for a few hours. Think I’m going to put some ribs on the smoker today. I have some new bbq sauce to try out. Tomorrow we’re getting a new car. Looks like a 2022 Chevy High Country Tahoe. They’re larger now and really upgraded. I’d keep the truck but I need to get some kind of new vehicle by December 31st for the tax advantage. I’ll save $80K on taxes next year which is about $30K of actual cash by making the move. If you’re self-employed and use it for business and it weighs over 6000 pounds, you can depreciate 93% of the cost the first year. That pays for one kid to go to college! Our accountant called a couple days ago and suggested it. Was going to go for another Suburban but they’re too hard to find or they want $10K or more above retail and we don’t need the extra long length especially now that they extended the Tahoe. Should be home by noon. It’s a great car and now that Ty has a truck, we can use his to haul crap if we need to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
7:30 now so if we’re going to the gym, time to get moving. Bronco’s play tonight. No one is giving us a chance at all but I have a feeling we might just win. Hope so. Jagger’s birthday is a week from next Friday! Tom’s is 2 weeks from today! That’s all people, get outside, move and groove, enjoy the day and your life! God Bless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
