  • Second bookkeeping assignment off too

    It was a piece of cake compared to the first one, just a bunch of review questions. Must wait now for the next two units to arrive by mail, they will be the last two of the basic subjects – occupational health and safety, and technology in the workplace. Then I’ll be getting into the meaty bookkeeping bits.

  • More Ebby pics

    She’s still naughty, but not as difficult to manage. Even H.has made the comment that she is getting better.

  • First bookkeeping assignment is off!

    I am enjoying a celebratory mug of hot chocolate to commemorate the long awaited completion of my first assignment. There was a bit of research and report writing in this one, I actually learned a few things in the process. I now know the difference between banks, credit unions and building societies, and a little more about the different roles of bookkeeper and accountant. Have also learned some valuable time management skills – I just have to make sure I put them into practice.

  • New BDO

    And it’s NOT Gayle. The interviews were yesterday, and an applicant was selected for the job – all being well, she starts in a month. Haven’t met her but apparently I’ll like her (according to the other staff who met her).

    I’m sorry for Gayle, Ros said she was very disappointed.

  • Domestic

    Poor Sasha nearly had her head bitten off yesterday. The three dogs were outside on the porch, I was leaving for work and heard a doggy dispute, then yelps from Sasha. I’d assumed it was Boss and Ebony having one of their spats but it was Sasha and Ebony. They’ve never fought before, I don’t know what caused this fight.

    Poor Sassy was bleeding from her right eye and very shaken, her little heart was beating like a tamba drum. H took her to the vet that morning and discovered a couple of extra puncture wounds on the left side of her head. She is ok now, taking some antibiotics.

    A little disgusted with Ebony, hopefully we’ll get over it. Will have to be careful of leaving those two together
