Office Day!
I have not been at my desk to spend quality time and it looks like it! I typically try and keep Monday as my office day but that hasn't worked the last two weeks. I'm not complaining, I had fun the 2 Mondays that I worked outside the office, I just have felt slightly out of control.
Much better now. Even though desk day coincided with tax day. My taxes are done. They were finished a couple weeks ago, filed online and we even have some refund back. Of course it went to Steve yesterday for the deck staining, but at least we could get the deck stained!
Tax day is writing those checks quarterly to the state and federal governments. It's probably my least favorite part of being self-employed. I know that I've always paid taxes, I just didn't have to actually write the check!
I need to follow up with some customers and see how they are doing. I'm sure they'd call if they had questions or were confused but I like to make sure all is well especially with new customers until we are more comfortable with each other.
This week had lots of new things to celebrate. Monday I cooked for a new client for the first time. They needed me because they just had a new baby the Friday before. We were set up to cook before the baby came so they'd have food. I got to see new baby Ben and new big brother Sam on Monday. A very happy day.
Tuesday I had long term clients but they have a new puppy! She is 6 months old and very, very cute. I got to cuddle with her in the morning. No pictures yet, she's the sister of Beckie Sue and Charlie Brown the Shih-Tzus. Apparently they are not convinced they needed a new sister dog in the family. I'm sure they'll work it out. I also gave the older dogs a little chicken from the chicken enchiladas. Chicken never hurts.
Wednesday was a second time client and that's always a good thing. They need to eat healthy food, they are dealing with health issues but weren't sure they would enjoy food from the freezer. They are very happy with the meals they had so that means I could have another long term client! They have Rosie the Rottweiler who gave me a nice big morning kiss on the cheek!
That brings us to today. I'm disappointed that the 7:15 Jazzercise class was canceled this morning. I like to go early and have not been this week yet. I'm going to try and remember to go at 4:45, but have doubts.
I did get my banking done this morning, wrote the checks for taxes, got organized for a dinner party on Saturday and now I think I need some breakfast. I need to leave the house to go to the bank, post office and library to complete my organizing.
After all the organizing, I may still have time in the day and may have to start cleaning. We'll see how that goes.
