Just another day in the life

04-06-21 turning down work

April 6, 2021


Over the last 24 hours I have been approached from three different angles by 5 different people with 7 different companies to do their books. I feel rather committed to the first one and capable of fitting in all but 3. I know I could do them all but I would lose my work/life balance. I managed to make them all happy by suggesting another bookkeeper for the person with three companies and offering to set up books, consult and train. I am overwhelmed by the opportunities but hesitant and need to remember it is ok to say no. I also as asked by a client to help them find a new accountant which is nerve wracking as I do not want to hurt my working relationship with the current one. I also am not good at recommending anyone. I want them to trust my guidance and I rely on others living up to what they promise.

I did take two hours midday to go to the Naturopath, Dr Lisa, that was recommended. She ran a bunch of food tests and sold me some treatments to try to get off the meds and cure the inflammation issue. She wants to ensure it is not my gall bladder releasing bile and causing the problem. I will do what she asks to see if we can narrow it down.

I also look forward to a boost of energy. Exciting things are happening for Fisher Peak Performing Artist Society. The fundraising campaign is going very well. At this time it is very much on my peripheral attention list though. I will do as needed but at best right now I can like and share posts and be grateful for the support we are getting. Got my notice of the AGM for Vancouver Island Music Fest today and it just made me a little sad as we look forward to seeing each other again in 2022.
