Well - it's practically here and passed, but audit season is full swing. I actually feel very prepared for the audit this year. So far everything is tying, everything looks to be in place and we are ahead of schedule with preparing stuff. Part of that has to do with a great fiscal year with sound, consistent management and the other part is we pushed the audit back two full weeks which seems to be making all the difference in the world.
The budgets are still a little scary, but they've been entered in FE and they are materially correct for Oct so we are just going to fly with them for this month, then after the audit I can focus on correct the issues that are presenting problems.
Then its off to complete the 990 before Cmas break (whoot whoot - once again I'm taking Friday, December 19th - January 2nd off). After the holidays I can focus on all the backburner tasks that I've pushed off for almost 2 years and get cracking on a better way to manage the books here.
I still don't know if my big idea to merge all the Education departments will prove to be more work with better drill down capacity or just more work. We'll see. If it's a big failure, I have work arounds to get us through the year before we go back to the old way of doing things, if necessary.
School is plugging away. I'm in the last week of my 3rd to last class. Only two more after this. But it's Audit and Taxation. Lame. Looks like I'll be walking with the Washington Campus on June 20th, which is nice because my folks can come up and see it and it won't interfere with our trip to Europe in July.
I start my Becker CPA review on my birthday, so I'll have 2 weeks of doubling up on UOP and CPA review. That's going to be crazy.
Big Dave is in town and that's AWESOME!! I miss him. We are going to the burlesque show tonight. Speaking of, I gotta scram. See ya!

I am so proud of how hard you've worked at Tree House Crys (as if there would be any doubt on my end LOL) but it's really fascinating to hear how far you've come from your days here at Choices - you rock chicky!
Good for you for taking some time off around XMas, I don't have any vaca time left but we get a few company paid days anyway, I hope your Holidays are relaxing and renewing.
