Well it’s a strange old game you learn it slow
One step forward and it’s back you go
You’re standing on the throttle
You’re standing on the brake
In the groove ’til you make a mistake
You gotta know happy – you gotta know glad
Because you’re gonna know lonely
And you’re gonna know sad
When you’re rippin’ and you’re ridin’
And you’re coming on strong
You start slippin’ and slidin’
And it all goes wrong because
Sometimes you’re the windshield
Sometimes you’re the bug
Sometimes it all comes together baby
Sometimes you’re just a fool in love
Sometimes you’re the Louisville Slugger
Sometimes you’re the ball
Sometimes it all comes together
Sometimes you’re gonna lose it all
One day you got the glory and then you got none
One day you’re a diamond and then you’re a stone
Everything can change in the blink of an eye
So let the good times roll before we say goodbye because
Sometimes you’re the windshield
Sometimes you’re the bug
Sometimes it all comes together baby
Sometimes you’re just a fool in love
Sometimes you’re the Louisville Slugger
Sometimes you’re the ball
Sometimes it all comes together
Sometimes you’re gonna lose it all
This week has been a mixture of being both the windshield and the bug. Really good things happened, followed by the not so good. Isn’t that the way of life?
Taxes 2023.
Is that enough information for ya’ll?
It seems that no matter how much is withheld from a paycheck, it is NEVER enough for Uncle Sam.
Never.
Never.
Never.
Thank goodness Mary Chapin Carpenter wrote this adorable song to remind us all that no one has smooth sailing every day of their lives. Some days are wonderful as you stand on the highest hilltop in front of an amazing castle with someone you really adore. Then, there are those days when Turbo Tax sucks the life out of you.
Whatever you do today, listen to a few song by Mary Chapin Carpenter. She seems to have a good handle on life. As for me, it’s back to Turbo Tax. All too soon, the Tax Man cometh. I need to be ready.
More tomorrow.
