YES. This is definitely going to be helpful! Hoping to start this process today!

Oh yeah. That is why. You can't batch delete unless you have the free pro version, and that is $75 a month!

hmmm. I looked at this, but I didn't see the option to batch delete. Or maybe for that feature there has to be a sub? I also looked at SaasAnt. By getting the app through QB in my bookkeeping screen under apps, it will allow me to pay by the month only $10 per client, so I'm most likely going to do that unless I decide on something else. I'll look at Right Tool again.

LOL!!!

UGH! Well, that’s just reason number infinity why QB is so frustrating!!! Great question too. Why in the world would they get rid of something SO necessary and valuable to their customers???

I am accessing his books as his bookkeeper through QuickBooks accounting. I had no idea that existed! That would be an absolute dream if it does! I was just looking at three different third-party software‘s just to pay for a month to knock it out. I’m going to go online and check the helpdesk through QuickBooks bookkeeping! Thank you so much! I will post here what I learn!

Less than 20 a shirt is super cheap for so few items AND a 3 color design.

I ended up creating a very detailed invoice showing what was actually done with time involved and then I added a discount to show what she was receiving. She LOVED them and all turned out just fine. Instead of $50 per, I discounted to $40 for her.

This comment is SO helpful btw. Thank you SO much!! I'll be applying this priciple from here on out rather than just give a guesstimate!

You are correct! I didn't realize how long each one would take before I told her I would do them. It's ok though. She's helped me out in the past with what she does so I don't mind giving a discount. However, I'll know for future that something like this def takes about an hour each.

$50 total? Or each?

No. Not at all. I did it myself on the sec of state website. $125. It is easy to do on your own. Don’t fall for hiring someone to do it!

My mother is the same way!! If I send an invite for anything to my mother, father and brother in a group text, she doesn’t like it and won’t come, without me private messaging and catering to her. No ma’am. You don’t get to dictate and manipulate how I communicate dates and events to the family. But her main thing is trying to control everyone and every thing. I’ve just chosen to stop allowing her to do so.

As someone who is in a very similar situation…I agree. I had to be able to set boundaries. My mother has ruined so many family gatherings that that is what my kids remember. In an act of protecting my family and self preservation, I’ve chosen to back away from the toxic environment that she creates. I have tried and tried for 25 years, it every time I wish that I’d gone with my gut and distanced myself from the drama she creates.

All that to say…I GET IT. You aren’t being selfish at all.

You are not over reacting. For the second time now, my almost 80 yo father had to go in the hospital for a several day stay. My mother has taken his phone, both times to prevent him from communicating with anyone. This time, I told her if she didn’t give him his personal property that the police would be involved. She refused. I called the police and they forced her to give him his phone. And now?? Now she’s acting like nothing happened and that I am going to host Christmas like I usually do. Nope. I’m not allowing her to act the fool and then entertain her delusion of everything being fine. The fit will hit the shan in about two weeks when she realizing I’m not hosting everyone this year.

AGAIN I say, you are NOT overreacting.

NOR. GET OUT. You aren’t his wife, thank God. Hopefully at this point you’ve already ended things. If not, you need to immediately. He has already crossed a huge line with what he texted.

YES! I have a Brother Entrepreneur multi needle. I have the original hat driver system and then a couple years ago bought another after market system that seems like it would be the answer to what I was needing. Not so. It’s just mostly frustrating bc there isn’t a great way to really get the hat full stabilized, no matter how much backing or how many clips you use. UGH.

Huh. I’ve never heard of this? How many dollars will it set me back? What specific machine/model do you have?

Oh wow. This is very interesting!! I’ll have to research the ricoma! What model?

OK. So the first thing I tried worked! I created a second artboard, copied and pasted the design to the new artboard, deleted the one it was on and it fixed the issue! Thank you!!!

This was definitely the winner! Thank you!

I opened this as a png file in Illustrator and created an object out of it, expanded, made some small adjustments and saved it as ai. I'm going to try each of these suggestions! Thanks for taking the time to respond. The ghost layers are so weird!

He has not filed since 2016. I am trying to get 2016 cleaned up so moving forward to 2017 is correct, but I am running into these numbers not matching beginning and ending balances of the bank statements.

I would love to have a pm sent to me as well. I definitely need a good digitizer as well. I can do it some but I also need a good option when time is a factor. Thank you in advance!!

This took me down the correct path! I first made a pattern and did applied it to the text in the first place. So after seeing your response, I copied the word, then used the crop option in pathfinder. Then I placed the copied word over the stripes. It worked! Thank you so much!
