Utilities Disconnected
Dear  [Lynn],
Okay, I’ll wait until Thursday to call. After all, as the song says:
“Everybody needs a little time away
That’s what they say
From each other”
On the taxes: Yep, this year I’m going to be brutalized by the IRS. Only 2 deductions and less than $200 in charitable contributions, although I did give away many pounds of old clothes. But next year, there should be sizeable mortgage interest to deduct.
No TV now. The cable service has been disconnected. Oh I suppose I could hook up a coat hanger and pull in a few of the local channels. But things are going to be so hectic the next couple days, I won’t have the time to worry about it. However, I still have the DVD player available. In fact, I might just watch one of the Star Trek movies tonight.
They turn these phones off on Sunday.
Read between the lines? Yes, as in, many a truth is said, in jest. 
Tom
