Today I balanced my check register for the first time since October 10, 2008.
Yep. October.
And I don't mean "reconciled to my bank statement." I literally mean I just calculated the balance in my check register.
Yes, I am a CPA. Yes, I have chewed out clients in the past for such irresponsibility.
I could point out that October was when Congress started debating the much-loved TARP bill. I could make a correlation between the government's inability to keep it's own books and mine.
Wes: Hey, where'd all our money go?
Me: (shrug) I dunno. But it really stimulated the economy...I'm sure of that.
But I won't go there.
Unlike our fearless leaders, I will take full personal responsiblity for being a bum.
So, if you are one of my former clients and I ever chewed you out for being loosey-goosey with the check book...my apologies.

Shame shame! I'm the one to balance ours and just did it this morning! Glad you got back on the CPA wagon!
Oh my, Lisa!!! I'm shocked! LOL
I confess I haven't balanced the books since I got married and turned the accounts over to the husband...13 years ago.
I love that you are my friend! :)
Is there a Part III cause this is getting GOOD!
(I could make you feel REALLY good about yourself seeing as how I haven't balanced our checkbook since we've LIVED in Colorado.)
