I got up at 4:30 this morning to turk, then slept from 8-12. I feel like you.

It's nice, right?

Did any of you interview your accountant? I need to find someone to work with me - and I've been looking at CPA certifications (I need a CPA) - and it's all so confusing. Part of me thinks that meeting them and seeing if we can work together (and I trust them) would make a difference.

I have used 2 different accountants over the years. Don for 10 years when I had DDG Inc, and Bruce, for 7 years when I set my wife up in her business. You will know if they are good from the interview questions they ask...(best money I ever spent)

I interviewed them sort of the first time they did my taxes. I have had two and so far I've hit a home run with both. You'll know pretty fast if you and your accountant aren't on the same page so to speak. (I have had other people do my taxes where I knew instantly it wasn't the right fit, but they weren't accountants.)

Can I ask you a quick question? I've been upping my vegetarian cooking lately, but I'm getting into a rut with the entrees. Everything is turning out stir fry's and pasta dishes. Any suggestions for variety?

Cheese all the things! I was a vegetarian for 5 years back in the day. I still limit my meat consumption to very small levels but I love chicken and fish every now and then. Literally, cheese all the things. Its such a versatile food. It makes everything better.

I haven't done them in a while but i seem to remember the instructions saying that if you don't see a human then don't say yes.

Also, didn't they used to have the progress bar on the video so you could jump through the video. these aren't nearly as good now that you have to watch the whole thing

I've always marked no on these. They want to see a human performing the action. If you can't see the human, it's no.
