Shout Out Saturday (or Sunday)

I’ve been blogging for almost a dozen years now (my first post went live on Nov. 14, 2005). For most of these years, I’ve posted at least one new item every damn day.

Now I’m old older. And the hubby has cut back on his work and wants me to spend some of my time sharing his new free time. Who am I to argue? At least about this.

However, I do love blogging. And I don’t want to short-change you, my loyal readers.

So I’ve created Shout Out Saturday or, depending on the weekend day this new feature appears, Shout Out Sunday.

Regardless of which weekend day it runs, the concept is the same. Rather than composing a new post, some weekends I’ll give a shout out to another blogger’s post or financial journalist’s story that I know y’all will enjoy and find useful and link to that. 

Of course I’ll add a few of my own words. That’s what writers do. But most of the content will be found in the piece that’s getting the shout out.

And just in case you want to know who made my precious free time possible, I’m linking all my Shout Out Saturday (or Sunday) posts on this page.

That’s not because I’m a writer, but because I love making lists! So here goes, with the most recent Shout Out added each weekend to the top of the list. 

Enjoy these articles/posts and your weekends!

Want more? Sure you do. You can find the continuation of Shout Outs into 2018. (And, thanks to the magic of the internet, if you want to time travel further into the future, check the 2019, 2020 and 2021 tax shouts, too.)

Hello Tax Season 2026

Happy New Tax Year! Are you ready to file your 2025 tax return? I know, too early to ask. But Tax Day 2026 will be here before we realize it. The Internal Revenue Service deadline to file and pay any tax we owe is the regular April 15 date this year. It’s also Tax Day for most of the states that collect income taxes from their residents, which is most of the states! If that seems too far away right now, don’t worry. As is the case every tax season, the ol’ blog’s tips and other tax reminders should help all of us meet our state and federal responsibilities. Procrastinators also will want to keep an eye on the countdown clock just below. It tracks how much time we have until April’s Tax Day, just in case we put off our annual tax task until the absolutely final hours and decide we need to instead get an extension request into the IRS by that date. (Note: I’m in the Central Time Zone, so adjust accordingly for where you live.)
