I'm happy to report that we beat our May 1st extension deadline by 1 day for getting our 2023 (that's not a typo, yes 2023!!) taxes completed and filed with the IRS. Three hurricanes, multiple hospitalizations of Dad, Dad's passing, hernia surgery, & lots of depression could not stop us from getting all of our 2023 financial entries done in the nick of time! AS ALWAYS, Fredrick James Accounting worked tirelessly to make sure we beat the deadline... they are THE BEST OF THE BEST!! I call them Financial First Responders because they come to the rescue in emergency situations. Fred & Crystal Daus run an exceptional & professional accounting and tax consulting organization. I highly highly highly recommend them for all your business accounting needs ( www.fredrickjames.com ). We could not have gotten this done without FJA and months of hard work by Jan (I call her JANtastic!) learning Quickbooks Online (I call it SLOWbooks) and entering in over 150 bank statements. I've used the Quickbooks Desktop Version for 20 years, but we switched to the Online Version this year and it's completely different... frankly, it's awful in my opinion. But Jan stuck with it and got it done. And huge thanks to my 2nd mom "Mathy Kathy" (I just made that up, lol) who volunteered her time to sort, organize, and file hundreds of receipts. Kathy has been my 2nd mom since I was born. She was my next door neighbor for the first 20 years of my life and gave birth to my lifelong best friend Chuck. As I shared a while ago we are waaaaay behind on everything, but we are eating the elephant one bite at a time ;). I'm thrilled to share that we are almost done with our 2024 financial entries so that should easily be completed way before our extention deadline (PTL!), aaaaaaaaand we are almost up to date with our 2025 entries soooooo, Lord willing, we won't need an extension in 2026. One small step for us; one giant leap for GTD. More updates coming soon =)
