\"\"Let\’s get your taxes ready!

I hope you’re staying healthy and happy! This is such a weird time for all of us, and I just want you to know that I am here for you in whatever capacity you may need me. Whether it be just to talk, to bring you any necessities you may need, or to continue with your organizing project. Yes, you heard me! We can actually organize virtually using Zoom! 🙂 With everyone home now, the clutter situation around the house may get a little out of hand. I’d love to be there with you to (virtually) hold your hand, and help keep it under control. I will walk you through how Zoom works (it’s easy!), and then we can work together on whatever area of your house you’d like!

This month, my focus is on making sure you can find your tax papers. Even though tax payments and filings have been extended to July 15th with no interest or penalties (which is awesome!), it\’s still a good idea to get started on them. By organizing virtually with me, you are carving out the time to do it (just like you do when I come in person), which is what most everyone says is the key. Meaning, no one wants to do this by themselves! 🙂 We will go through your files, discard what you don’t need, and relabel them if necessary. I can print out labels for you and mail them to you! Not only will we find what you need for your 2019 taxes, but you will also be able to find what you need for your 2020 taxes much quicker and easier!

Who will be my first virtual client? 🙂 Virtual rates are lower than my in-person rates, and I am offering an extra 25% off the first session to the first 5 people who contact me! And remember, we can work on any area you’d like. Can’t wait to hear from you!

Tips for Holiday Houseguests

Tips for Holiday Houseguests

\"\"Tips for Holiday Houseguests

I love the holidays! Getting together with friends, feeling the good cheer (most) everywhere, and sometimes having family come and stay with me. I like to reduce my holiday stress by starting to get my house in order at least two weeks before the family comes. The first article has some tips for getting your house guest-ready. I also thought it would be a good idea to remind ourselves of some common courtesies to extend to our hosts when WE are the guests. Pretty eye-opening I thought. Let me know what YOU think! 🙂
