Using this for all kinds of projects is definitely something I will integrate into my organizing system!

In reply to Jen Kirby.

Jen: I understand! With separate personal and biz finances, it’s hard to keep up.
I have a bookkeeper, so I’m forced to get the books to her each week (electronically). But I found myself delaying and delaying on my personal bookkeeping.
My new trick: I can’t return the books to her until I’ve done my personal books. It’s only been 3 weeks, but the trick is working pretty good so far.

Thank you, Becky.
That dry erase board is a lifesaver for many artists. It’s so visual! I have one and I can never figure out why or how I’m supposed to use it. 😉
