tax time and the ship is getting closer

Over the past week I’ve been buried in paperwork, doing my tax from last financial year. Given that this financial year ends on 30th June, once I finished last year, I moved right on to this year! It is dull, boring and not my favourite thing in the world!

In the little bits of time in between, like waiting for children at their activities, watching a DVD in the evening etc, I’ve been working away on the embroidery I took overseas with me. I got heaps done on the plane and in the evenings when I was away, and I’ve been slowly getting more done since returning home.

Today, I could choose to do more tax, or maybe finish the embroidery. I know which one I would rather do, but I think I’ll end up doing the tax. 🙁

People keep asking me how things are going with my book. The Sardinian book shipments are on various ships around the world, heading to their temporary homes at my distributors. My shipment should actually arrive here a bit ahead of my original schedule (the ship was alongside the northern NSW coast yesterday afternoon), some time in the next week or so! Then there will be a mad flurry of activity, packing and sending out all the orders I’ve already received. How exciting!
