Red Bull

Question of the day . . .

What do you think, can cases of Red Bull be considered a tax write-off?

I ask this because I’ve spent the last hour filing receipts. I either had to do that, or head to Costco and purchase a new desk, because mine was nowhere to be found beneath the piles!

As for the Red Bull, it’s my new best friend. I say this after finishing novel #5 last week, A Valley of Betrayal . . . after two extension. (It was okay, really, my wonderful editor was away on vacation anyway.)

The problem is that when one project is late, then the rest of the deadlines get scrunched. So in the last five day I’ve:

1) Written a teen fiction proposal requested by a publisher. (5,000 words on the chapters and another 5,000 on the summary!)

2) Written a requested piece for Clubmom.com. (They signed up on as one of their “expert moms” go figure!)

3) Have 1/2 of an article for On Mission Magazine written, which has included conducting two interviews. I have one more interview and the rest of the article to write . . . by tomorrow.

4) I’m in the middle of filing my receipts . . . But I can sit in front of the filing too long. Boring!

My friend, Deb (in interview below) drinks lovely things like mochas. But can you see Red Bull is my friend?

So what do you think? Thumbs up or thumbs down for the write-0ff?

    hmmmm write it off woman… besides- as I happen to know it’s required beverage for teens- it also fits into the research for employment category.

    I’ll stick with the Mocha’s myself;) Praying for you- you’re an encouragement to many.

    Although- if the redbull does giv out- you could be wild and crazy and try a little SLEEP!

    If you get to write off Red Bull, then I get to write off all those Iced Vanilla drinks I get at the coffee shop when I’m writing!

    Red Bull is an energy, just think of Mountain Dew X2!

    Okay, really, I’m not going to write them off . . . And I promise to actually start sleeping more!

    Red Bull counts as meals, right? Right?

    My goodness, you’re busy! When do you have time to like sleep? Or breathe?

    Have you ever read what Red Bull contains??? Ok, don’t. You’ll never drink it again. (Crystal, whose sons pointed out the offending ingredient to me one day….ha)
