More Slog

Ugh. I've been so busy lately that balancing my checkbook fell 4 months behind. It took me three days to get through that mess, with missing transactions and bunched up EFT transactions that take forever to find. You'd think after fifteen years of marriage that I'd be used to it, but I still hate sharing my checkbook.

But, its done. For now. It's one of those activities you just hate to do because it takes a lot of effort to make the statement, the checkbook, and Quicken all match. Blech.

I don't know about you, but it sure seems like I use debit more often than ever. Not having the check numbers makes keeping track of things far more difficult. I guess life just gets more and more complicated.

And that's why I don't balance my checkbook....

Oh, the temptation, but I'm too anal about knowing where the money is to let it go forever.

Don't worry, your sister, the Banker, is about 2 months behind on balancing her checkbook...
