:brain: *Daily Brain Digest* (57 thoughts, last 24 hours) Today was a busy one, focused on juggling various tasks related to the tattoo business while keeping an eye on family matters. You spent time filtering and organizing tattoo appointments in Notion, making sure all necessary information was captured, including release forms for clients. Additionally, you dealt with financial statements for the Medicaid application, ensuring that all receipts and invoices were properly tracked and verified. There’s a clear connection between your appointments and your financial tracking today. By managing client records and tying them to invoices, you can improve your overall business efficiency and ensure compliance for the Medicaid process. Upcoming, you have several tattoo appointments scheduled for this week, including sessions with Cori Woodall and Alicia Barker. There’s also the need to schedule Wesley Tingle’s second session for his back piece, and be sure to arrange a touch-up for his leg tattoo. **Action Items:** - Schedule 2nd session for Wesley Tingle's Tiger Dragon back piece. - Ensure Wesley fills out a release form during his next appointment. - Complete a verification pass syncing all receipt files against Notion databases. - Review open items for Dave's confirmation before finalizing the Medicaid report. - Create new posts to improve engagement on social media. Verification pass sinking all receipt files against Notion databases is complete. All open items for Dave’s confirmation before finalizing. The Medicaid report have been reviewed and I believe the report has also been finalized

[Medicaid Application] Session 11 - Convention expenses added: Norfolk Tattoo Expo (Nov 7-9, 2025) was missing from all expense data. Booth $800 paid via Square Invoice #000100 on April 23, 2025 (pre-bank-email period, not in handwritten forms either). Hotel $528.35 (Sheraton Norfolk Waterside, 4 nights). Parking $80. Total convention: $1,408.35. Updated expense total to $17,054.22, net income to $58,371.93. Asheville Sheraton ($874.62, June 2025) confirmed personal (wedding photography). Hampton 2026 booth ($450) paid March 2026, out of period. Key lesson: convention expenses are a blind spot since booth fees are paid via Square (not in bank categories) and often months before the event.
