I had a meeting this morning with a bookkeeper who understood the ins and outs of QuickBooks. It was enlightening and well worth the time and expense. I had several things that I had not done correctly over the years and a few in 2005. It seems as though we were able to get through them all today and get me on the right track in my thinking. The good news, I made significantly more profit in 05 than I thought that I had. The bad news is that the net worth of the company is nowhere near what I thought it might be.
Winter is here now there can be no doubt about it. We had a strong northwest wind for the last couple of days. Temperatures are cold with the low this morning near zero Fahrenheit. The new woodstove that I have been wondering about has really done the job. To be sure I still am learning to operate it but it really puts out the heat on these cold days.
We have enough snow on the ground to make all of the Christmas decorations look great and tease the winter sports enthusiasts. But not enough to actually ski or perhaps snowmobile in. Last Friday when it came down I had to scramble to get most of my final winter preparation done, I would still like to get the cover on the boat but will need a couple of warm days to melt the snow and ice out of it now, hopefully they are in the cards.
