Trust my rage

Ginger, I do the same thing. Everything is entered on Quickbooks, but then I just throw it all in a drawer in case I ever need the hard copy.

I bought the TIPPR deal, so now have to get my graphical rear in gear.

Erin, I've been ordering from Vistaprint since 1999...whew, that oughtta be a song. If I tried to use a referral, I fear they would look at me funny.

I started out with business cards while I was at Loyola and have used many different designs since then. Goodness me, when I look back at my history with them, it's an interesting memoir of my resume. heh. Funny that.

Hey, I'm selling a domain name I've had on ice since 1997. I put up a listing on craigslist...and could do the godaddy auction route as well.

Any other avenues I should pursue?

will xpost with tech.

Erin, I highly recommend finding a good accountant come tax season, regardless of whatever program you find for now. My experience has been (without exception) that a good accountant saves much more than he or she costs when running your own business. You may already have one, but I just wanted to chime in just in case.

And many accountants are used to dealing with the "throw everything into a box" method of record keeping.

Don't know if you can pay or would do barter, but juliana is looking to freelance if you need help with your graphics.

smonster! Thanks for the Juliana rec. I don't need to hire for this round. I designed the logo, wanna see it? [link]

I've been using a part of my godaddy website, as a graphic...and I really like it, but my profile is getting higher, so I can only use my stuff. I love way it looks on the new website design, but I'm a bit stretched to figure out how to make it look good on stationary.

It'll come to me though.

I saw something in the paper that the Monaco, in Alexandria, will be sponsoring doggy yoga one weekend.

That's hilarious.

Years ago, Gene Weingarten asked us to go to a Liz Lurman Dance Exchange event...Dancing with your Dog.

I'm sure I've told this story around these part before, but I learned something very important on that day. Most dogs don't give a sniff about our organized exercise routines. I can see a limp lap dog doing doga, but except for his daily stretching routine, I think Bartleby would just as soon pass on the whole Sun Salutation thing.

His Sun Salutation is to turn his belleh up toward the sun and give you a look that says, "Kizzit. Kizzit now."

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Don't know if you can pay or would do barter, but juliana is looking to freelance if you need help with your graphics.

Sliding in... bonny, I know you've got your logo, but if you'd like help with getting it on stationery when you're ready to, I'd be happy to help and am willing to barter.

snorgles smonster for the tip-off, since I had no idea this thread existed
