SUNDAY, MARCH 3, 2013

Well, wouldn't you know it . . . I have TWO avid readers!  My mother informed me today that my Aunt Dana (who clearly read the comment about me posting for my mother a few posts ago) is also a fan of this little blog, so now I know I must continue posting!  One doesn't mess with A.D.!  :)

This morning, Mom and Dad drove up to Tampa, from Sarasota, to meet me for brunch.  We went to the Marriott hotel restaurant where we had our Christmas brunch together on December 23rd.  They brought me a whole bunch of mail that my Lighthouse Point Plaza neighbor and dear friend, Phylis, had sent them.  Most of it was tax paperwork.  I had everything prepared, and had previously spoken with my parents to ensure that all 1099s, W2s, etc. were there.  So, that was all put together and sent off to my accountant (a.k.a. Uncle Paul - financial extraordinaire)!

After brunch we ran a few errands, and Mom and Dad dropped me back off at the ship.  It was FREEZING cold in Tampa today . . . 46 degrees Fahrenheit at 9:30am and the high was supposed to be about 59 degrees.  I am ready to get back to the Caribbean . . .
