It's been a WHILE

 Looking back at things, I've noticed that it has been a while. Funny how you set out to do one thing and then something else comes along. I said to myself "wow, has it been that long since we were last here together?" I don't like it when people change things up on me without a warning, a notice, an invite to the change party. I mean geesh, where's the common courtesy. NEWS flash, if it were common then....I think you get it by now. 

It is good to be back and let me say it is never too late to restart something to started but didn't see it through. So here we are! There has been so much that has happened since we were last together. Tax season has come and gone and come and gone again. For those who have timely filed there 2021 Income Tax returns, CONGRATULATIONS! For those of you who timely filed an extension, SMART MOVE, but remember, the extension DOES NOT provide additional time to pay any taxes due, that was still due on April 18th. Interest is accruing daily on any amounts due after that due date.

Extensions are through October 15th and that does not mean that you have to wait until then to file. You have up until then to get the return completed and filed so let's not put that task too far on the back burner that we loose sight of it.

This is also a great time in the year to make sure all your financials are up to date and that you are where you want to be within your financial goals. People still set those just so you know. Summer is here and vacations are in order but don't think that you have to live like the Jones' to enjoy a summer vacation then end up depressed afterwards. 

Remember to plan ahead and give yourself and others grace. We are in this together and I'm not just saying that because it was ran in the ground during the "COVID" but because it is what we are charged to do. Lester Holt says it best at the end of every show. If you don't know who that is, it is perfectly okay.  

This is still the place to come and don't forget to grab your favorite cup of tea (mine is ginger tea with honey and lemon)! So come on by anytime! There is so MUCH I'd like to share with you on my journey into the virtual world

Until we talk again, may the peace of Christ be with

👂Owe the IRS $30K or More? Here’s What the IRS Won’t Tell You - But I Will

  If you're a successful business owner in the health and wellness space and you owe the IRS $30,000 or more, it can feel like you’re drowning in silence. You’re managing your brand, your team, your clients... all while pretending this massive tax problem doesn’t exist. But here’s the truth: the IRS isn’t going to tell you your options.

  🚨 Got IRS Letter 11? Here’s What It Means and Why You Shouldn’t Ignore It If the IRS sent you Letter 11, LT11, you’re officially on the clock. Ignoring it could cost you your paycheck, bank account, or even your peace of mind.   What is IRS Letter 11?
