Winter's about to let loose..

Concrete leaves for my pond

Okay, the leaves are raked, beets dug, squash tucked away , and hoses drained. I've finished another fun project outside by adding concrete leaves I made to the pond.
Tom's checked out the snow blower and has it ready... I think were ready for the first snow fall that's supposed to happen tonight & tomorrow.   I'm busy getting geared up for Tax season, reading new tax laws and studying on new regs--- so fun!.  This tax season may be a challenge with some many pending changes but one line item at a time... one return at a time.

building arbors-- a favorite hobby

Another project was the continued project of grape arbors.... our vines produced a really nice crop of seedless white grapes and dark purple grapes-- very good!.

By the end of the season, the vines were all the way across the  front of the Shop.

Gardening and smelling the Roses

Time to tackle the Garden, and hopefully get some fishin' done, too!

Learning more about Social Media

Attended the ID Cineposium today in Coeur d'Alene and learning shortcuts &
more techniques about Facebook-- very useful.

Survived another Tax Season!

April 17th - Tax Day- has come and gone, and we all survived.  I had many really great people I got to work with / for and nice to be able to help them.  Now, it's back to accounting and bookkeeping, and training of a few new clients.
Plus, I've gotten to work with S.N.A.P. - Spokane Neighborhood Action Program- good people helping more good people; doing assessments of business's bookkeeping system and accounting procedures, then if needed help is approved, work with the owners/bookkeepers on training in QuickBooks or other accounting software.
   Then ofcourse, there's the family-- had the youngest grandson turn 2! and now the oldest of the five grandkids turning 8 this Sunday.  I am so blessed with my kids, grandchildren, and my better half, Tom Hanson all doing well.

Tax Season

Less than a month before Tax Filing Season will come to an end... another season survived and  almost completed!  Thanks to all my clients who are allowing me to help get them through their returns being filed.  "Yeah" for those getting refunds, and hang in there for those who owe.....

Flowers from Tom, this always helps me get through long days of working on tax forms!

Tax season is upon us and I so enjoy the people I work with and for... training has paid off and seems like everyone's "getting it" on what's needs.... yeah!
