Journal of activities:

I spent the entire day working to build an excel spreadsheet that would show all of my business transactions for the year 2013. The project brought me up to date. I’m now ready to work with my accountant to file all of my necessary tax forms. It’s very exciting for me to work through the numbers and see the progress that I’ve made since my release from prison. The exercise gives me a great deal of encouragement for 2014. I’ll be working on values and goals to guide me through the new year in the days to come. I’ll work hard to prove worthy of the trust and support I’ve received from so many people, including my friend Lee Nobmann, who has set a goal of becoming one of our nation’s largest cattle owners.
