At the end of the tax season tunnel. While Friday is business return deadline and everyone is stressed, we have just over a month until freedom. And for me, that freedom means actual weekends and Disney World. Things have gotten to a slightly more manageable than they were. I'm settling into this senior role with…
Long Time, No Write
Hello everyone! I know I haven't said much at all this year (I'm not counting my birthday announcement. That was like five words), but it's officially half-way through tax season. I figured it was past time to check in. This season is kicking my butt. The new tax laws are tough to figure out, and…
2018: A Reflection
Gosh, what a year. I passed the CPA exam, swam with sea turtles, started with a personal trainer, and did a bunch of stuff in between. As for my 2018 goals, let's review together: Pass the CPA exam- check! Lose 10 pounds and be healthier- I could have done better here. I got really close…
Post-Test Reflection

Fingers Are Crossed
Tomorrow I take REG! If (when) I pass I will be able to FINALLY apply for my CPA license. I'm taking it easy tonight. Might look over a few notes, but I don't want to cram and tire out my brain. The test isn't until noon, so I will sleep in a little bit and…
The Final Countdown
I take REG on Friday. My last section of the CPA exam. I won't find out my score until Dec. 11, so I am really hoping Santa will grant my Christmas wish and make me a CPA. Mostly because I don't want to study anymore, but also because those letters come with more opportunity and…
It’s Go Time
It's November first, which means I have 29 days until my last CPA exam AND NaNoWriMo has started. Because of said final exam, I am not expecting to hit the 50,000 word mark this year. I will be happy if I manage to write anything at all. If you want to join me, sign up…
Out of Vacation and Into the Fire
I got chosen as fire warden for the office, so that "into the fire" bit of the title made me laugh and I am not ashamed of that. I find myself to be hilarious. The cruise was AMAZING. We were on Brilliance of the Seas sailing out of Tampa. The weather was beautiful, the food…
