We headed out to the dump this morning with a truck load of green waste. I had a meeting at ten but Pat was sure we could get the job done and be back in time. I was doubtful but thought if I was a bit late it would be okay. Turned out we made a good team; Pat unloaded and cut the bags and I emptied them. We were home by 9:30 in lots of time for my call.

I spent the rest of the morning working on the Hall accounting with the accountant. There were some things I entered wrong when I switched to the new accounting package and there some other issues with another account. She left me with a number of things to sort out and I thought that was that.

This afternoon I put together the 30 four-patch pieces I need for one of my mystery quilts. Adding the orange fabric worked out well and I have pretty good contrast in all of the blocks. I added the borders to one of the table toppers and I’m halfway done the second one.

I was about to call it quits for the day when the accountant called me back with some more questions. It was like we weren’t speaking the same language; she was talking debits and credits but the form where I make entries doesn’t use debits and credits, at least not in a way that I could tell what I was entering as which. We ended up by deciding to give her access to the files and she will make the necessary adjustments. Even that wasn’t easy as she gave me the wrong e-mail to use and she wasn’t getting the invitation to sign into the account.

Once I got everything figured out I was more than done. Pat had an online event this afternoon so I was in charge of supper. I thought I had some time to kill (maybe get some cross stitching done) but when he heard me downstairs he told me he was going to finish early and I should start supper right away.

Supper is over and Pat’s on his second online event of the day. I’ll go downstairs, do the dishes and try not to obsess over my accounting issues.
