Well .. it’s “Tax Time” again for me .. and, I just got over one of the first deadlines - ‘T4 Season’. In addition to me trying to get out all of my monthly bookkeeping clients’ work out the door .. I’m also starting to work on Year End financial statement preparation and corporation income tax. For this past month, it was also all about the preparation of employee and owner wage remuneration and/or dividend slips that have to be reported and filed with Canada Revenue Agency by the end of February every calendar year.

Well .. in every normal month my busiest ‘offline’ time of work is around the 20th and the last week of each month and this past month was a doozie for me! I had a few extra jobs and rush deadlines, had a few late comers, and quite frankly .. I think I only slept about 5 hours in the past 72 hours! Most of my clients have December year ends, so work is definitely piling up - and, Personal Income Tax clients are now calling (our deadline to file personal income tax in Canada is April 30th for most people, June 15th if you are self employed).

Well .. I’ve been tagged again for another meme .. by WildCatsThree in The Dog Log blog.

Here are the rules of the game:

* Link to your tagger and post these rules.
* List eight (8) random facts about yourself.
* Tag eight (8) people at the end of your post and list their names (linking to them).
* Let them know they’ve been tagged by leaving them a comment on their blogs.

Well .. WildCatsThree tagged this blog, and NOT me personally (HART) so .. I feel I can take this to mean 8 random facts about my dogs!

In case you were also wondering .. both of our dogs are purebreds. Maxxie is the larger dog, and actually oversized from the normal size of Papillon dogs. Sophie is the female dog, which are normally smaller than the normal male papillon dogs, so she looks small. But - don’t put these sizes out of mind. Sophie can take care of herself and actually considers herself to be the Alpha dog, even though she is the baby (or ‘Baby-Gurl’) of the pack!

So .. Let’s get this *party* started! For this Meme game .. and PS: it’s a pictorial!

Why It Is Important To Know How To Take Good Pictures Of Your Pet

Here is a picture of our Maxxie, taken in 2002 by a professional photographer.

We ordered pizza one night on my wife’s birthday, and I put my business card inside a “bin”. Next thing you know, $300.00 later with our ‘Free Pictures’ and other pictures, we finally had some family pictures .. me, my wife and Maxxie! Maxxie was the most photogenic of the lot, as if you can’t tell! I call this picture .. “Maxxie - Formal - Smiling”

Maxxie’s TEN MINUTES of Fame!

Yep.. That’s me .. HART with our Papillon dog Maxxie .. I guess we both had our ten minutes of Fame … Doesn’t Maxxie look GREAT behind the wheel? It was a long time ago, but I was one of the first Manitobans to have one .. and a local photographer asked me if I would want my picture in the paper .. Naturally, I said .. NO .. but, Maxxie was a pushover .. that photo hog! Naturally .. I created a page to house that picture and the article … here ..

Anyway ….

It’s because of this picture that I was laughing when I came across this following site…..

I’ve been hardly posting pictures of my “Baby-Guurrl” Sophie and “Maxxie-the bestest Maxxie in the Whole Wide World!” over at http://PapillonLvr.com/blog/ .. It’s probably in the basement somewhere with the Xmas decorations … woooops.

By the way .. That’s Sophie with the Red Rubber Ball
