I had such a horrible night sleep on Monday night that last night I really fell asleep. And this morning I could not drag myself out of bed. So I got up late. So there, Wednesday!
I do have an 11am appointment to get to on time. Gonna be tough. I weighed in this morning at 156.4. Which is slightly up from last week. Which is more than slightly bad. It’s a hangover from Christmas I think. There is so much treat food leftover I am still eating outside my diet. Can’t last forever.
I managed to get out of the house by 1015. Which is about as late as I can leave and still get in by 11. Drive was quick. About 10 minutes out my 11 appointment called. She was early. Great. I texted back just to reassure her I would be there on time. Which I was. So there.
The new client is a daughter of another client. Sadly, I am old enough for a 2nd generation. She brought her husband who has a business that needs an accountant. But the wife is in charge. So she and I talked about accounting and her husband corralled the kid. In the end, she will be paying me for accounting which is good for everyone but especially me.
Next visitor was an old client I have never met. Strange. I always dealt with his wife. She had a side business and needed help. Now the husband is coming in. Probably because they are getting divorced. The wife is a complete and total bitch. Everyone hates her. By everyone I mean all who work in my office. No one likes her. Actually, they hate her. Her husband is very nice. Crazy. He is just dropping off info really, and checking out our office since he has never been here.
Between the two above appointments, with the one client waiting, I took a quick break to Walkers office to try some fancy tequila. Wednesday is drinking day.
Today is Merissa’s 21st Birthday. She was one of our office “mascots” when she was a brand new baby. Her mother, Cara, has worked for me for over 20 years. So Merissa is more of a daughter. So I brought in a bottle of tequila for her. We cracked it open and had a couple shots. It does seem strange to drink booze with her.
After the last appointment, I worked. Just another day. I did manage to finish a couple tax returns. Not much else going on.
On the way home I stopped at the credit union to make a loan payment on the car. I hate the credit union. For awhile they were after us for late payments. Except we had paid. Turns out they had assigned us a new account number and could not figure out how to apply the payments. Si collections kept calling. Took a month to get it straight. Like I said, I hate them.
Headed to home shortly thereafter. It’s raining and the trip was slowed by idiots. There are plenty around here.
Dinner was great. Emily made chili and cornbread which is a really fantastic combo. And a great salad too. A salad makes it all healthy.
We sat and watched TV for awhile. Had a long discussion about Marikas job prospects, and tried to help her figure out her travel plans. She wants a post college trip and just can’t pull the plug on where to go. Whole lot of talking going on.
