I Finally Went Green

Over the weekend I finally figured out how I was going to go green. I have so many client invoices with selling Stampin Up and Gold Canyon Candles the invoices tend to accumulate. So I have been trying to figure out how can I go green and keep track of my invoices. I decided to start scanning my invoices. I made two main folders one for SU and the other for GC. I then made folders for each of my clients. So I will scan the invoices when I first take the order and keep the invoice until the order comes in. Once the order has come in and everything is in place then I will shred it.

Tai has gone green.

Where I have I been

Hello All:

I haven't posted on my blog in almost a month. Life sometimes can really throw you some curve balls and I was thrown two at one time. I had a very dear friend of mines sister die and another dear friend of mines husband shot and robbed all in the same day. I was helping me friend get things together for the funeral. As for our other friends husband he is doing okay the doctor's didn't remove the bullets from his body because they said it could be to dangerous.

At the same time work has been really crazy. I work in the financial industry and it has been rough. I do realize that not only the industry I work in is in danger of laying off but everyone can be laid off. So let try to be understanding and kind to each other times are hard for everyone. For those of you were times aren't hard please remember to pray for those that are less fortunate because remember it could be you and your family.

Hugs
Tai

PS Once my camera batteries charge I will be posting a few cards that I managed to make on last night.
