Being a responsible adult - kind of...:)

By
Education & Training with Marketing Artfully

So I am doing all my grownup stuff today:

  • Filing my business taxes - PEOPLE March 15 is two days away - get them in NOW!
  • Paying the State of Florida for the right to have my PA
  • Sending in an affidavit so my husband can sign papers for me (we are closing on a house in 3 weeks!!!!!)
  • Sending in an affidavit for Adobe so I can upgrade 
  • Depositing a check

AND...drumroll please...taking in my late library books (sigh - I hate when I am late with them - an automated man has been stalking me for two weeks telling me I have overdue books - hopefully he will GET OFF MY BACK now...hehehehe)

PS - I have to say that I have no idea what groups to post this to...I need the "go tara go" group to keep up my motivation to be an adult!

Most of the time, being an adult is NO fun...I'm turning into my parents - I love it when my daughter says how lucky I am to be able to do whatever I want - Yeah, Right!

@ Linda - AMEN GIRL! I am so not on board with all this responsible stuff and the worst part is I save up all my horrific things to do at once. Go have some ice cream for breakfast - at least we can do that because we are grown up!!!

The definition of maturity is knowing when you can be immature.  Go Tara Go.

As a shrink friend of the family said to me once: "You were raised all wrong to be irresponsible..." Darn...there are days when that is sure attractive !

What a big girl you are!  No one really wants to be grown up all the time.  The ice cream sounds good!

@ Don - that is what is SO funny - day to day I LOVE lead generating and working on my business so my day of he** was filled with administrative stuff...no lead generation, no articles written, no networking, just admin. But I got it done and now I feel all sanctimonious about being caught up!!!

@ Tanya - that is SO grown up, and TRUE!!! Doesn't mean that I am happy about it. On a side note, I thought doing ALL of THAT would take hours if not days, actually it took 1.5 hours....:) Go figure!
