Tackle It Tuesday

8th January 2008

I ran across Tackle it Tuesday this morning at 5minutesformom.com and decided it was just what I needed to give me a kick and get me going on a task I’ve really been putting off. What task? Balancing the check book! I have both my November and December statements and have had them laying here for quite some time. Everyday I think I’ll get around to it, but I seem to put it off again and again. So, I decided that if I post about it, maybe that will give me the incentive I need to get it done. I don’t have pictures since it is just bank statements, we all know what those look like.

If you’d like to participate, you can take before and after pictures of your task at hand. Tackle it Tuesday doesn’t have to be about housework, it can be any task (like balancing a check book) that you really need to get done and just need a little push to accomplish it.

What a great tackle! My biggest problem is the reciepts that add up before I can get to balancing the bank account. I’ve gotten better…but it’s still something worth putting on my tackle list

Yes, checkbooks are important, they’re also very easy to procrastinate with! I did get all of my receipts recorded, started on balancing, haven’t finished yet…

Thanks for stopping by!

Tyra - I have a tendancy to procrastinate when it comes to balancing my checkbook, I simply do not enjoy the task!

Char - I hate all those receipts! I get them all recorded and put the checkbook away. Then my husband decides to clean out his wallet and I get to do it all again! There really must be a better way!

I need to do this badly. I haven’t done it at all and I’m very bad about keeping receipts and recording them.

This is a good tackle! Good Luck!
