I've mostly spent the day avoiding the things I should be doing.
This morning I had a choice of working out or doing taxes. So I worked out. Then I checked the sprinklers. Then I ate lunch and napped. I have the blog loaded up for next week, and I'm even working on a couple guest posts.
I guess I'm finally going to have to knuckle down and do the damn taxes.
Oh, and I got invited to a free breakfast! Well, actually the envelope is addressed to my Dad. Now that I've given Dad's old postmaster a change-of-address card, Dad gets more mail at my address than I do.
The elite "Central Oahu Information Center" of the Hawaii Senior Alliance has invited him to attend their free "Senior Citizen Workshop & Breakfast". They're even an "accredited business" member of the Better Business Bureau. Best of all, it's at that deluxe local fine-dining landmark: [-]Zippy's[/-] Denny's!
It's a real honor for them to invite Dad to join them, because he never even sent them an application. I've attached the invitation so that you all can call them too and ask how to qualify for membership. Dad must really be lucky to be on their list, because seating is limited. I know the Hawaii Senior Alliance has to be a very exclusive, secretive, well-connected group because I've never even heard of them before. They're so publicity-shy that they use a post office box instead of a street address. How very fortunate that they reached out to Dad. I don't think Denny's would let just anyone take over their establishment for a seminar. Especially not on a busy Thursday morning at 9 AM.
I'm hoping that if I call the "local" number really early on Monday and explain the situation then they'll let me attend in Dad's stead. Maybe they don't mind that I'm managing Dad's finances instead of him. Golly, if I show them a brokerage statement would they give me a one-time waiver?
