12-19-23 A new Do
Today was… frustrating… and wonderful.
Frustrations out of the way first… I don’t like to run down others in my industry but the lack of useable information by the company that prepared my client’s year end is staggering. I reached out several times asking for the same basic info I need every year and was sent.. a tax return. For those in the business, a return is what you can claim to the government, bookkeeping is everything run through the company and it much match Trial Balances at the year end. I can not make the information match and spent 3 hours on it today… sigh.
My advent made me smile as always
I arrived at the office to be blessed all day with gifts!
At 4 I met with first, Steve, Lallah and MaryAnne about Rotary and then just Steve to work on the 2024 budget for FPPAS. It went smooth and we were done by 6. I worked a little more on the files and them headed to see Karissa for a haircut at 7:30. She gave me a tidied up shag cut and we had a great visit. I stopped at Encore and was thrilled to see that Grace was working. I ordered some nachos and a drink, and she joined me to talk about her haunted house. We had a great visit and she made it clear she doesn’t stay after at work usually. That made me feel good.
I came home and watched Reindeer Games and puzzled. It is good to blow off the day.
