oh frikken sob!


Ahem

Please excuse that small outburst below :)

I have had a HORRIBLE day!

It is now month end again tomorrow

because I am STUPID and tired and I'm an artist damn it, not a mathematician

and I had everything all ready to go by 11 am....."god I'm good" thunk I...

yes indeedy, I was cool, calm and collected, all bills paid, all the landlords accounts sorted

and even had time for a little cup of tea and an email or two

smugness

dum de dum

The only thing I had left to do was the bank reconciliation.....piece of the proverbial, yes?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Do you think it would balance...hellooooo, the computer is supposed to do that jazz

I just punch in the numbers

Well, I (or some other sidekick) have obviously punched them in wrong this month

and some people had decided to put their rent in the bank with NO NAME on it

Yes, I know I am intuitive but really........

So, these amounts need to be made into an ADJUSTMENT....easy yep, you just stick it in the other endybit, after you do all the other stuff, like presenting cheques and other thrilling things

FRIG

Is it plus or minus

What about all the other adjustments?

What about the BALAAAANNNCCEEEE

grrrr

So....at 5 pm it still wont work.....6 HOURS LATER...

and I don't know why

and it was too hard

so I threw it at the wall

and came home

I have done this every month for over 18 frikken months now

but not today

hmmmm

worst part is

I get to do it all again tomorrow

Yay

but still

I am home now

I have eaten something unhealthy...good old fish and chips

and I have my PJ's and the heater on

so

I will live

sigh

today was one of those days when it would be so nice to come home to a hug you know

a BIG GIANT one....

or a stiff drink!

Sucks to be me there :)

so

I walk in the door to find one child head down on the stairs looking like a dead body and the other one jumping out from behind the door screaming!

Argh

Told you I'd have a smile on my face......

once I got up off the floor I may have smiled a bit

I'm working on the bloody gratitude okay!

sheesh

Oh. Soz for bad day at the Orifice.
How can you possibly be Michelleangelo and do numbers too?
Relax, sleep well, in the morrow you will find it.xx♥

sounds awful, confusing and totally painful- a hug is better than a stiff drink and i will drive up and give you one if its that bad xx

Ah ha! So it was about balancing the bank account!! Now I understand completely! I usually spend hours trying to reconcile a 5 cent difference. Yesterday I tried to balance mine as well and there was $3,200 difference!! The fact that it was in my favor didn't help any because the mathematical exercise is to create equality, not cheer over imaginary money. I after many AARRRGGGHHH's I got it down to the usual 5 cent difference. And said, screw the 5 cents and went to bed. BAGMAN says that he can't drink either but would love to be "hugged."

I'm doing my month end too and I hate it! I do bookkeeping for a living and if everyone else would do their job so I could get mine done, this lady wouldn't have the frown lines she does all the time! argh!

A certain person here has 30-31 days EACH MONTH to do his part of my inventory work and every, EVERY single month I have to remind him the last week of the month to do it so I can close up my part. I get a freakin PILE today, June 1st.
What the???? It's not hard! It's easy, just do it. It could easily be done in small batches, weekly, but nope.....that would make my life easier. Can't have that! The problem is he's my boss. I can hardly rag on him to do his job right? So I sit and wait.

I want to be home painting. It's really a shame that this has to pay the bills though. Still, I'm grateful to have a job :) Just wish my dreams would come true and my art would pay the bills. Oh what a lovely dream♥

Hang in there, I will too :)

I don't know if I should laugh or cry. Your blogging is so funny but balancing the books is so ugly.

I feel for you and hope when you look at it with fresh eyes ... things will resolve themselves.

This will make it easier for me to balance our check book that we hardly ever use anyway.

XOXOXOXOX ~ perhaps a change in jobs?

The fact that you identified all of these issues, didn't kill anybody or anything and posted this with a wry twist of humour tells me you survived the moment. I could still give you a "BIG GIANT" hug if you want one! Glad you settled for the heat and your PJ's. :) xx
