A few gratitude moments
Jan. 6th, 2022 04:24 pm1. I mentioned how awesome our NYE party with friends always is. Also - special shout out to NYE's morning. I got up and took a long walk. It was cold out, but when I got inside, I drank hot cocoa and played a game of Hearts and watched the latest Expanse with Doris. All of those little things were nice
2. Started watching Young Royals. (And am almost done since only 6 episodes are out now). Really love it. Getting all the feels from its gay couple.
3. And omg, something awesome has been happening this week! So, every year Doris gets stressed out because she has to do this Accounting thing for her business where she reconciles each month. It takes her forever and she hates it. And she normally starts it in October, but so far she had not started it at all - which is bad, because her accountant needs it mid-Feb. She talked about hiring our nephew to do it. Then I was like wait....can't I be trained instead? After all, our nephew lives 45-60 minutes away and is a full-time college student. So, Doris trained me to do it. And I'm almost done with the entire year! I did make one mistake that took us a while to fix, but other than that, it's been going really, really well. Doris had thought she would get this in just under the wire, getting it to her accountant like on Feb 15, its due date. But now we are nearly done! I helped Doris and learned something new.

and WOW!!! THat's super awesome about the accounting thing! SO COOL! You get to learn something new, you help Doris, Doris doesn't have to spend weeks earing her hair out about it, etc. So nice. And maybe something you can keep doing if she keeps working after you retire.

I am really loving helping Doris with her accounting!
