Happy New year
Hi everyone:
We are back in the land of fun and sun. We had a great week with everyone in Utah. Very hectic I know but heaps of fun. And we are now condo owners as well. Whitey ended the day with a horrible cough and head cold. He slept well last night but we will see if we end up going to the 2 New Years Parties we are invited to.
He is also still deciding about going to Australia or not. Freda is doing very well. The full check up they did on Thursday shows that they got all of the tumor and it has not spread further. So no chemo or radiation is needed. She is feeling very well and should be sent home on the 2nd. Her and Alan will have alot of assistance once they are home. So we are feeling it is not as an emergency and will decide what to do.
Ellie- I think most paperwork you keep for 7 years. That's in a corporation at least so maybe less for individuals. Ask a tax accountant. I know you probably do your own taxes but you may want to talk to a tax accountant as they may help save you some money and time. Like what paperwork to save for possible rightoffs you will have from improvements of your home over the years. Also, since George is working out of home, you may be able to right off an office space. But there will be stipulations such as if it is a 'dedicated' space just for his work. And when you sell the property the office write off may, or may not, benefit you. Charley could help you since he would be doing that for his business. But again, ask a tax accountant.
Pay Stubs - keep for 1-2 years then toss.
Your warranties and instruction manuals- only keep if they are still in effect. Then toss them.
Good luck - sounds like a fun job for the new year. You'll feel better once you are done.
Love - Max
