Welcome back!
Today, I feature a 'neighbor' of mine.
They are just down the road, in the former Bestway Floors building.
is located at 7001 Washington Ave.
at the corner of Prairie Dr. and Washington Ave.,
just east of Case High School.
Their hours are based on time of year.

I have to admit, I've never been inside any accounting firm before.
My expectations of the atmosphere were
(HAPPILY!) shattered, the second I walked in.
I pictured suits and super a 'just business' setting.
Instead, I was greeted like I just came home. I felt immediately at ease, and welcomed. Part of what makes them unique is the fact that they are very professional while not being stiff and stuffy.
This was actually quite a nice, fun interview!
Thanks Tammy Lundgren!!
Felle, Lundgren & Associates, is a full service, accounting firm that began in 2001, and moved to their current location in 2011.
Most of the associates are CPA's. They can do just about everything -
payrolls, tax returns, pay bills for clients, help with financial planning, tax planning and more.
They are currently expanding the building with future plans of growing even more. How awesome to see a business growing! Their staff are long term folks, as the work environment is very much like a family.
They are also very community minded and sponsor a variety of community events, including one coming up very soon, held in Kenosha.
Check out this fun opportunity!

There will be a Grand Launch of 500+ kites at noon.
This is a family event, free to all, with free parking!

There will be a giant 140 foot Octopus kite, can you imagine what a site that will be!
Free kites will be given away to kids just for stopping in at

Whether you're a kid or a kid at heart, this sounds like so much fun!
Take the family, and enjoy this free event of amazing kite flying.
Fear not, I didn't forget about the 3 words she chose :)
1. Professional (but not stuffy!)

Great job, Liz. You are going places. (Pun intended) It takes nerve to set up an interview appointment at places with people with whom you aren't familiar.
I can see your confidence growing and it shows in your writing skills: professional, but not stuffy. Thanks for sharing your time and newly acquired information with us!
not so sure about the writing skills, but thanks :) I still feel crazy nervous introducing myself and trying to not only explain who I am, but who we are... way out of my comfort zone but I really want to do this :) the "profession, but not stuffy" I actually got from Tammy, I'm still working on my way with words, and hoping my grammar and punctuation meet Beejay's standards LOL!
These guys sound like a great accounting firm. When I get rich, I'll give them a try.
Lizardmom, I find it hard to describe our site, too.
Great job, Lizardmom. Never had a doubt that you wouldn't succeed in this!!
Nice write up LM.
Reminds me of the old saying....
No job is done until the paperwork is completed......and that includes the bathroom laugh'in
