06-01-22 Hello June!
I had to hustle and get to the office as I have signed up for QuickBooks Connect, an online something. I find it hard to imagine it was organized by bookkeepers as it is the first of the month when a great deal of payroll land. I had two to accomplish today, needed to provide info for a client’s year end audit and was trying to pay attention to it. Imagine a big industry conference only via a website and zoom. There was no agenda in advance so I didn’t have time to be sure what zoom to jump into. Ultimately it was good that I learned what I did but a few of the things were aimed more at businesses than account keepers. I will check in tomorrow to see what I can learn there. I picked up a few shortcuts and heard of others wanting some of the same improvements to the software. The last thing of the day was a 45 minute zoom with The Sentimentalists who I saw on AGT. They were not any better in this medium and in fact I saw him writing on something on his lap that the showed up as sketchy drawing on the ‘blackboard’. Amusing how every one was blown away in the zoom though, lol.
I spent the last part of my day working on MusicFest scheduling and that was very satisfying. I end up exhausted after being there but it is always so incredibly satisfying. I can’t wait to see all my old friends and acquaintances as well as make new ones. Soon I should know if I need to actively recruit more people. After work I went to Safeway and managed to lose a signed lottery ticket. The good thing is that if it is a big win, only my signature and ID can claim it. I left my info at the lottery kiosk.
Lunch was corn on the cob and beer, non-alcohol of course. Kory, in the office next to me brought two of his kids to the office today and I gave them candy canes while he was on the phone. The little boy made me a picture. I like being Nana at the office too.
