Today was very productive.  In more ways then I thought it would be and not so much in other.

We started by heading to the bank first thing……took longer then I thought it would.  But that is okay, we are now set up.  We went on to the office supply store here in town so I get a few more things to handle the extra files I now have.

*****Warning for Dad….Next paragraph is about women’s stuff! 

We also went to the sporting goods store, I really needed a new sports bra.  You have no idea how hard it is to fit me.  I so hate shopping for bras, especially those.  It is like full figure women do not exist!  I did find one that will work, for now….not the best fit.  There is one online that I found, that I’m thinking of trying.  But I have to get it from the UK and I don’t like ordering items like that without trying them on.  This is where I’m thinking of getting one : http://www.shockabsorber.co.uk/uk/

We had some lunch while we were out and then it was back home to work.  We got a lot of work done.
What I wasn’t as productive on was taxes.  I didn’t get to those until much, much later.  In fact I was getting a little panicky about it.  I did get them going, but have a very long way to go.  If I can get it too the point that all I need is to give myself time to go over it before April 15th and I’d be set.

I need to put the laundry away or we won’t be able to get into bed……..lol

I’m so looking forward to the next few days off.  I just wish it was longer then two days…..I have way too much to do for them.

I did get my nails done, went with a dark purple for the fingers, light purple for the toes…….except for the big toe, it has some dark purple on it.

We have to head to the bank again tomorrow to get some business taken care of.  Found out that I was right and we weren’t missing anything.  So now we have to try again…..icks

We are watching Casino Royale, saw it in the theaters last year.  It is one of the best 007 movies ever.  I just hope that they can keep it up.

I got off of work early to take of some business, found that I was missing an item. =( Hopefully I’ll have it by Saturday…not holding my breath.

Got a call from the place that I ordered my roller skates from, I’ve been wondering what was going on.  I guess all orders that were placed Friday didn’t get printed for them to fill, then it is coming from their supplier.  Even though I really wanted them now, I don’t have the time and my feet have been hurting…….so it is okay that they will be late, even though the girl was making sure that I still wanted them. I was just glad that they had the customer service to call, let me know and give me the option. If I get good customer service, I’m pretty patient with everything else.

I told Shelley that outside of everyone and my requests off, that I need to start getting my two days off together. I can’t get much done on one day, I need to one to be semi-chilled as I work so I can then attack work on the other day.

This weekend is for me to attack our taxes…….I swear this is the last year I do our taxes….I’m going to have an accountant next year. With our other business adventures, we will need it. I’m also hoping that I find time to attend a class at HR Block and local college, to learn more about tax prep and paying from s-corp. My head has been spinning.

I got some work done and figures recalculated, so I’m pleased that I got that done. I just really need to get time to add things to the store. There are a ton of things that I would love to add…….especially, since we got the backend set up more the way I need it to be for tracking.

It finally rained, we’ve been under fire threat for awhile and really needed it. It smelled good when it rained……crisp and clean. I love it.

Alright, where to start……..this was a day off. And I didn’t get to our taxes. =( But I have next weekend off and I feel better having 2 days off together to work on it.

Lately, as soon as I get online I have quite a few things that I need to do for the online work that I’m doing now. Which I think is really cool, but then I feel bad that I work full time and that I can’t do more for it.

Once I got a few things done, I hit the shower. We had to hit the store. We haven’t been grocery shopping for the last few weeks, so it was due. Of course, that leads to a very full cart. =)

When we got the groceries put away, it was time to get to work. What I do like when we go out is that it is always a good time for Harold and I to discuss things that are going on. Which included our work opportunities.

We have been given a great opportunity business wise. We are going to take it. Boy, I’m nervous…..I don’t want to screw it up. I know I can do it, I’ve just never done anything like this before and our friends have put so much faith in us, I just don’t want it do be misplaced. But the potential for it is huge! My brain is swimming. I can’t wait for us to get to Portland and really put the time into it.

Now, I’m going to have 4 jobs, our stuff, my day job, the online work and the opportunity…..which is the extension of what I’m doing now……… so I guess that those 2 jobs are a job and half.

I did get some work done with the my online job, I still have a long way to go. I’m not looking forward to working all week. =( I won’t be able to get no where near what I want to get done. Some how…….

It was beautiful today weather wise. So we set ourselves outside on the patio and got to enjoy the sun and fresh air. I just can’t handle being coped up in the office, when I can enjoy feeling of being outdoors. Plus we really need to get more desk. You look at it and you would think that it would be enough…..but no way, not with all the paper work I need to spread out. In the evening, the office doesn’t bother me…..but during the day….that is another story. I think it is because I’m use to being very active during the day and that I feel as I’m wasting the day when I don’t enjoy the fresh air, especially when it is beautiful out.

Me working and concentrating………………and trying to ignore my shutterbug husband.

Harold playing with my camera……….grin

Now, if only the pool was about 10 degrees warm…….it would’ve been even better for enjoying the outdoors, even with all those damn leaves. =)

Time to put away the laundry…….I guess I won’t be getting to the pile of dishes……….damn, I’m a horrible wife…….can’t even keep up with things around the house on my day off.

I had to work today.  But I’m very happy that I rode my bike home. I needed the exercise & I haven’t done that in awhile.  I did get on my workout machine (I just can’t spell it) a couple of times a few minutes each.  My calves are hurting and I don’t want to stop using it, want to use it more, just don’t want to put myself out of commission.  So I’ve been trying to do stretches to work it out.

I meant to do some work tonight………….didn’t get that far.  So I will try again tomorrow.  I really need to do our taxes, been putting that off for too long.  Then I can get back to work on other things.

I’m going to head to bed and chill out…..I haven’t done that in awhile.  =)
