Good morning everyone! I am watching my finances. The budget is bad this month. I am also collecting info for my financial advisor. There is a small (<200) account I need to consolidate somewhere, portfolio re-balancing, and there is a class action lawsuit related to my prior refinancing. It would be nice if a little money would come my way there. I doubt it would be much though. Also have to be on watch for geezer kitty's health.
I did pretty much nada last night. DD14 had math homework. She is so sloooooooow at it. Accurate, because she checks her answers multiple times, but DANG! I tried to teach her some techniques to get it done faster, but she may not be confident enough to use them. However, after spending 45 minutes on the first two and realizing there were three more, she was going to consider them. I did remember to get gasoline. It is horribly awfully hellishly cold.
I am working on a Spanish version of an application. I need to decide how to handle it (lookup table?). It may be just English and Spanish now, but could expand to Diné, Navaho, and even Korean!
ETA: The president of the animal org just sent an email requesting that Deputy Troublemaker take charge of finding the venue for our biggest fundraiser. She and Chief Troublemaker want to change to a different venue and use a new name, eliminating all "brand recognition" and all the goodwill we have built up over the years with the regular venue. Their rationale was "change is good, very good". I said I thought we were supposed to discuss venue and name changes at the next board meeting (early Feb). I also reminded them of New Coke.
