A taxing week

By Randy Dyer

Welcome to Tax Week.

For those who have, perhaps, shaved their deductions a little too thin, no need to pray. Just sign up for this week’s lift, and all is forgiven.

I told you last week that we have a family of 8 — parents and six children: twin girls (2), one four-year-old, a one-year-old boy, and two older boys (12 and 16). The Toy and Book crew may be a little stretched on this one, so if you have sons or grandsons in the 12–16 range, ask them what we should include for them.

Meanwhile, it is a big lift — 6 beds, tables, chairs… the works. For the moment, we are set to gather on Friday, 4/17, at 5:00 at the unit. The residence is Montgomery Village, so with the right crew, once loaded, we should be done quickly.

Please let me know at your earliest convenience if you can make it. Also, if time constraints only allow you to work the loading end, or the set-up end, let me know that as well and we will try to accommodate you.

Call or write with any questions.
