Christina is in the La Grande area now. She's so happy and excited to be starting in the ministry. They'll start gospel meetings Sunday. I know when things slow down a little bit that I'm going to really miss her but then with my Auntie coming home there will most likely be someone else around for a little while. (That's my assumption and I could very well be wrong!!) Lots of change this year for all us! I got to say I'm very, very thankful for the strength that is available from my Father. It's beyond amazing!
The weather this month has been pretty crazy! Luckily this last week and half has been good!! We had a huge snow storm (for Portland standards) a couple of weeks ago. I've never seen it dump snow like that here. It was actually falling at an inch plus an hour! When all was said and done my place ended up with 8 or so inches and the next week was been stuck and home. Luckily there was more then enough work to work on.
All payroll and essentially all 1099's have to be to the employees AND the government by January 31st. Last year I didn't have to worry about the government at the end of January. One more step to do tomorrow and all is done! That will make sure a much more restful Sunday! :) Then onto finishing all the year-end bookkeeping. I patch information together for the 1099's and then go back and fill in the holes. :) It'll be a couple of months of employee training so they can take some of the work off my back! I was invited to a tour of a non-profit company called ALSO. Pretty cool non-profit! They help those with disabilities become more or less independent. I say more or less because they actually provide 24-7 care for those that need it while living on their own or with one other housemate in an apartment. It frees up the parents. Often the parents that need the help are getting to be older and are unable to handle the care it takes to help their child and they're often at their wits end of how to handle a child that they love very much. I was very impressed.
Where in the world did this first month disappear to??? Crazy how fast it has disappeared!
