Red Update and Still Studying QuickBooks


Don't know if anyone remembers Red? Well, I'm happy to announce that he's doing Much better! See how much weight he has gained? Almost a Whopping 100 pounds! Terrific! My sister, Ruth Ann, has really worked to get him back to where he started out before he had been abused. The Vets told her to put him down...she said, No way. SO very glad she didn't. He's a sweetheart and he loves a little beer with his oats and hay...hahahaaaa.....
We're still knee deep into QuickBooks...training...Accounting is accounting...That doesn't ever change. It's Where you put stuff that you have to figure out! Where it is in PeachTree, it's Somewhere else in QBs....frustrating! We'll get there though.
Well, guess I'll let you get back to your day...I'm keeping one eye on QuickBooks and one eye on "Ike"....looks like it's coming this way. Ya'll have a happy and carefree day!!!

Hi, We spent several winters in west Texas and enjoyed our time there. Of course we had kids and grandkids there, but there were also the warm days, the Mexican food, the flea markets, and just the wonderful scenery and places to go.
A couple of months in the west and then moved on down to San Antonio area, and eventually back up to this cold country.
Some cold days in Texas, too, but we loved it.

The horse really is a lovely looking creature,
Vets are abit quick sometimes with the whole putting down thing but I think it's cause they know too well the work involved in getting them back to health and the love and patience in it all too,
Good on your sister...What a star!

We used quickbooks when we had our buisness...It gets easier..really..It does!:)
Look out for Ike

You'd think that they wouldn't work so hard to make it so durned difficult to master an accounting program! I prefer the Peachtree, Quickbooks gave me many headaches. I've even worked with programs that handled multiple companies that weren't nearly as hard to master as Quickbooks.

Red is turning into a handsome prince!

I hope Ike doesn't wreck havoc down your way. Y'all stay safe now, ya hear?

Dawn said...

I like when animals are rescued. Red sure looks good.

Sorry that you are still having problems with the accounting problems.

Don't wear deodorant... then Ike will stay away. hahahahha

Hang in there, sweetie.

Donna, Thanks for commenting on my blog. You had a third one that I lost, think my finger slipped, it has a habit of doing things like that, makes me so mad.
You must be quite a cook!! I was just talking about tomato gravy and now you post the only recipe I have ever seen for it. I will try it.
Just one more day at home before I get the back proceedure that is supposed to ease my pain. THEN I WILL COOK !!THEN I WILL GET THE COOKBOOKS OUT, and probably get fatter!!
Thank you so much for your recipes.
