Only 9 states will continue to tax Social Security benefits in 2025: Colorado, Connecticut, Minnesota, Montana, New Mexico, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont and West Virginia.
My husband's 2nd cousin came over and worked on my to-do list. She cleaned out the car that I'm going to sell. Now we have stacks of stuff to put away.
Breakfast - None
Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Beef stew, Brussels sprouts, carrots, biscuit, pears
Dessert/Snack - Chocolate chip muffin
Dinner - Buffalo chicken/Swiss sandwich
What did you eat yesterday?

We agree on this, and so does Trump. It was part of his campaign to end taxing social security, tips and overtime at the federal level. We'll have to wait and see if this happens. But I think it should. It would put a lot of money into people's pockets and that money would, of course, go into the real economy where it would have a major positive impact.

Interesting about the states that will continue to tax SS. I'm glad my state won't.
How close are you to selling that car?

My husband wants me to put new tires on it and replace the windshield first.

I would just sell it the way it is, discount the amount of the tires and the windshield. But that's just me.

I don't think we should tax social security benefits at all, federally OR by state. People already paid the taxes when they worked. Just my two cents worth. But of course, the government always wants its cut. Although, Trump has said he wants to get rid of taxing social security on the federal level. We'll have to see if he actually does it, but it was part of his campaign. That and not taxing tips and overtime. We'll see. If Musk can cut some spending, we should be able to at least afford the tax cuts.
For dinner I made On-Cor Salisbury steaks and we had salad on the side. Yummy.

Yesterday was the beef stew & rice concoction, a can of reduced sodium beef stew and half a cup of rice that turns two servings into two hearty servings. I finished off my applesauce yesterday, and they aren’t finished with my car so I’m relegated to peaches today (oh, boo hoo). I also made an amazing twist on the infamous potato soup by adding a can of Campbell’s spicy cheese nacho soup. You wouldn’t like it because it is spicy, but I took a sip from the bottom of the slow cooker pot and it was great.
And there was hot tea, cold tea, bring along a demijohn. (That’s an old Flatt & Scruggs reference, a song called “Hot Corn, Cold Corn.”) Yogurt and a lemon fiber bar!!

@LindaOHio — it won’t burn a hole through the roof of your mouth but it definitely is spicy, so don’t try the spicy nacho cheese soup. They have a regular cheese soup that I have for another batch of infamous potato soup.
