Jack from Ohio Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 I use night deposit. Usually at 7:00AM on the way to my part time job at the firm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion EA Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Used to have hubby deposit for me; he's semi-retired and always has errands taking him into town. (I live in the boonies; nearest town is 20 minutes one way in good weather.) I had a client complain that I should charge less, because I hadn't cashed his check for a few days so must not need the money! Now, I deposit immediately via the app. Hubby's been depositing our personal checks that way, also; so he doesn't need to go into the bank any more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be charging more because you don't have the time to go to the bank! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NECPA in NEBRASKA Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Frazzled, hugs to you. I really feel for you. Please take some time to relax and do anything that might help you to feel better. It is so good that we have this board to come and talk to our friends. I know that there are days that I would just go nuts if I couldn't come here and read about people's lives and how they are dealing with tax season and the changes. This is a bad season and I don't know if it will ever get better. I try and think about what else I could do, but who the heck is going to hire me? I've been on my own for over 20 years and around here, employers don't especially look kindly on self-employed people. I need the flexibility of this job because of having to take care of so many family members, so I am thankful for that. Take care and make sure to come here and vent. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion EA Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Yeah, he's gone now. A check didn't clear one time, so he was not accepted back! A client brought me lunch, her homemade curried pumpkin soup and fritatta and salad and biscotti. I didn't really have the time to visit with her, but it was a nice interlude, I didn't have to drive anyplace in the ice and snow, and I hope it's left me refreshed and ready to dive back in. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joanmcq Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 I just took a couple of hours off to mow my lawn, or what passes for a lawn. Feels good to have gone outdoors and done something. Now I probably have another month grace period before anyone will think of calling code enforcement. For all of you who still are in the deep freeze, there's a reason I live in California! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all of you who still are in the deep freeze, there's a reason I live in California! Now that was just not nice! I just checked the temp here - minus 4. Anyway - I am glad we are all different. I would never survive in California. I love the four seasons. And I love things like this: at church yesterday, I was talking to an older gentleman. And he says "we live about three miles apart. We are like next door neighbors." I would not trade that for ALL of California - but I am glad you like it there. That said, I do know about mowing grass in February - I did live in Texas for 11 years. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 It's supposed to get to -10F here tonight - it's +6F now. Like a mild spring evening in Nunavut.... http://www.wunderground.com/weather-forecast/zmw:00000.1.71925 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcjenkins Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Snowing today in my old home place, but so far this year I have yet to even wear a coat. Did wear a sweater 2 nights. I'm sending warm thoughts your way! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion EA Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 I grew up outside Chicago, went to Michigan State, spent a decade in Santa Barbara, CA, and now live in CT. I thought I'd retire to the south, but that isn't even warm this winter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joanmcq Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 We have four seasons; it's just that winter is really really short. And getting shorter all the time. I think it was 2 weeks this year. Please ship your snow up to Tahoe. We need it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be cheaper and easier to just fly in here and check out the slopes in my parking lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rfassett Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Started at minus 19 today and made it all the way up to plus 25. And if the prognosticators are correct, we could very well see 38 degrees on Sunday with an 80% chance of "wintry mix". What the heck is wintry mix - it almost sounds like a drink. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might wish you had a drink when it hits there. We made it up to +24 today and is now +13. They are predicting "something" for this weekend. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcjenkins Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Well, wintry mix generally refers to a mixture of freezing rain, ice pellets, and snow. The worst of both, in other words. More likely to bring down tree limbs and power lines, bad road conditions, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
