LIVELY NIGHT-- LIKE NO? SLEEP,? BETWEEN THE CAMERAS, EXPLORE AND ACCREDITATION--- I SHOULD HAVE HAD SOME BRANDY-- BUT I FORGOT ABOUT IT.
BEST NOTE IS THE SELL OUT OF THE BRICKS---
I HAVE ADE AN EXECTUTIVE DECISION TO HIRE AN ACCOUNTANT FOR THIS NEXT YEAR-- EVEN IF I - PERSONALLY- HAVE TO PAY FOR IT.---
THAT GETS RID OF THE IRS 990 WITH IT'S QUESTIONS ABOUT RUNNING A TANNING SOLON.
I HIRED HER BECAUSE... AND THIS IS COMPLICATED.... SHE SEEMS HONEST.... EXPLORE GAVE US 2 GRANTS-- BOTH IN 2013-- THAT PUT OUR INCOME FOR 2013 OVER THE 500,000 MARK WHICH MEANS YOU HAVE TO HAVE AN "OFFICIAL IN DEPTH AUDIT"- TH KIND THAT COSTS $14,000 - I INTERVIEWED A HALF DOZEN CPA'S AND THEY ALL SAID OVER $12,000-- THEN I RAN INTO THIS IRENE PERSON WHO SAID IF OUR INCOME IN 2012 AND 2014 WAS LESS THAN 500K WE COULD SAY " AN UNUSUAL SURGE IN DONATIONS ( TRUE) AND JUST HAVE A NORMAL AUDIT --- MORE LIKE $3000,
SHE WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO SEEMS TO KNOW THAT DETAIL.. SO BASED ON THAT.....
SHE IS AWAY TIL JAN 10TH SO I WILL MEET WITH HER AFTER THAT...
WE ARE STARTING WITH QUICKBOOKS TODAY-- FOR THE SDP ACCOUNTS. I THINK I WILL SIMPLY USE A SPREAD SHEET FOR MY PERSONAL CHECKING-- IT IS SO MUCH EASIER AND I CAN DO ALL I NEED TO WITH A SIMPLE SPREADSHEET.
NOW ANY OF YOU WHO WANT THE DETAISL OF WHERE THAT 500 WENT, I THINK TIS IRENE PERSON WILL KNOW WHERE TO POST IT-- THAT 990 IS PUBLIC INFORMATION SOMEWHERE----MOSTLY IT WAS TO KEEP THE BOARD OF HEALTH OUT OF HERE BECAUSE WE HAD LAUNDRY WATER ON THE SURFACE----- WE are MARGIONALLY OK NOW--- BUT WE STILL HAVE TO DO THE BULK OF TH ELAUNDRY INTHE BARN--- THAT HAS BETTER DRAINAGE... YOU WILL SEE ME WATCHING THE AREA INFRON T OF THE WLKIN FREEZER-- WHEN WE DO TO O MUCH LAUNDRY IN THE GREEN BUILDING, IT HAS BEEN KNOWN TO GURGGLE THERE AND TEHN DRAIN..
*************
AS FOR OTHER CRITICAL DATES...
JAN 10TH-- SHEILA ( CRANNEY) WILL BE AROUND FOR 2 DAYS
THERE WILL BE NO FRIDAY THE 13TH IN FEB THIS YEAR, OUR CALENDARS CAREFULLY RAN THE 12TH FOR 48 HOURS BEFORE GOING ON TO THE 14TH
**********
TODAY STARTS WITH HIRING A THE PAYROLL COMPANY DOING ALL THOSE 941 TYPE FORMS SHOULD TAKE SOME WEIGH T OFF
*****
LAST NIGHT THERE WAS DISCUSSION ABOUT A CHILD PLAYING WITH KIARA
I WAS NOT THRILLED WITH THE VIDEO OF TH E CHILD PLAYING WITH KIARA - BUT I DON'T SEEE ANY GREAT PROBLEM-- KIARA IS NOT WHAT YOU WOULD CALL "FRAGILE" ---I DID NOT SEE THAT SHE WAS INTIMIDATED--- ... KIARA WAS FREE TO GET UP AND LEAVE AT ANY TIME-- WHICH SHE FINALLY DID. I WAS MORE ANNOYED WITH THE TEASING---
I DO NOT KNOW WHY PEOPLE- AND THIS IS ALOT OF ADULT PEOPLE TOO-- FIGRE THE WAY TO PLAY WITH A DOG IS TO TEASE THEM BY TAKING TOYS AWAY AND SHAKING THEM IN THIER FACES...
I SEE PEOPLE DO THAT ALL THE TIME- AND THO I FIND IT ANNOYING THERE IS A GAME OF "KEEP AWAY" THAT PUPS PLAY AMONG EACH OTHER..... THIS IS NOT JUST HTAT CHILD, BUT VERY OFTEN WITH PEOPLE- THEY LIKE TO SEE WHT THEY CAN MAKE THE DOG DO--- I CAN NOT TELL YOU HOW MANY TIMES WHEN I AM OUT IN PUBLIC THAT SOMEONE WILL STICK THEIR FINGER IN MY DOGS FACE AND YELL "SIT"-- OR I SEE SOMEONE TELL A DOG TO LIE DOWN-- THEN THEY WALK AWAY WITH THE LOOK "SEE WHAT I CAN MAKE THEM DO" -- MEANWHILE THE DOG FINALLY GETS UP WITH THE LOOK OF "WELL THAT WAS A STUPID EXERCISE"--
