Looking at the numbers, and last year was not a particularly good one. Lots of events were canceled which meant I had to forgo around six to eight reports and audits. That’s a pretty good chunk of cheddar that I missed out on. I picked up a few extra clients, but they didn’t spend anything close to what I could have hoped for, though I am very thankful for their trust in me and my services. No matter.
I did lots of DIY projects and didn’t go too crazy spending money on much of anything. Save, save, save to pay the tax man, then do as you please.
Attendance at my kids school is a tad light today, more than 60 kids missing from a school with little more than 300. A bit jarring when you see how empty it is. Of a possible 23 kids, my eldest daughters class has 10 today. I will say this though, a few more teachers and EA’s wearing masks today, which is a positive turn of events. Nice to see. This shit is like glitter and herpes, it’s every fucking where. God save us all from our collective stupidity. That and an attention span that quits after two years.
Yeah – so lots of logging invoices and data entry for today. I have dedicated these last two days to it. Dig up my receipts, colour code them, staple like items in stacks, log them, and move on to the next block. Every year I think I should keep a live document and fill it in as I go, but I never do. Luckily my business is small, and fairly simple to maintain.
I snuck in one extra chapter with Racquelle and Katayna on you! It came from a moment of clarity after my cold & flu meds kicked in, and settled down so I wasn’t so spaced out. Thinking about Covid, like a looming battle helped me feel her despair, and worry. Plus a bit of confusion. Gonna have to hash it out soon though. Or do I?
