Warm Up

Friday, February 15th, 2008

Where was I yesterday – oh yes, out at Desert Ridge.  It’s an outdoor mall with nice shops and restaurants.  My sister and I were looking for a place to eat by wandering from one end to the other.  I didn’t really think of it as a cold night until I walked past one of those radiant gas heaters.  I’d feel cozy for a moment and then realize what I was missing when I walked out of range.

I’ve seen them used on patios at eateries before and I’ve spent one too many cold nights on a cold back porch trying to enjoy the starts not to realize it’s potential out there.  As it is when I think I might like to buy something new, I go looking online to get a better feel for the product.  GasHeatersOnline.com was a good resource for this one.  They have a wide selection to choose from.  One tip – to look at the product, immediately do a search on their site for ‘gas heaters’ and you’ll get to see the products and pricing.

State Taxes

Friday, February 15th, 2008

I’ve been so excited about the return I knew I’d be getting from the feds that I completely forgot to do anything about my state return.  I’ll probably owe because they don’t take out taxes properly.  For those of you looking for forms, go to the website for your states Department of Revenue.  If you’re in Arizona, make a note of the  date on the ‘December Tax Facts’.  When they got behind, why didn’t they just skip a couple months?
