So I have this problem

Its called procrastination. See I think that I am like the leader of the movement and everytime I schedule a meeting well I cancel it and say tomorrow or next week or something. I have been meaning to get the site up and everything and I have to say that the first like week after I paid my hard earned change on it. I really did look and fiddle. Well now I have to admit I have no idea what I have done wrong the site doesn't even have a holder page saying that it's under construction anymore. I guess that means I need to read huh? Well I can read quite well actually but I hate reading off the computer and then going and trying something and it not working or not making sense. I also am pretty good or so I though at understanding what I read. However I am doubting a few things and think I need to invest in the help of someone else. That's always my biggest fear I think the net can teach me how to do anything. Like this weekend I tackeled home made enchiladas (chicken) with sour cream sauce. The recipe was online the instructions I followed perfect even did my own little spices and wahla wonderful. So why can't I get this what am I missing. Maybe the techy part of my brain is on vacation? HELP

My wheels are.....

....grinding! Yeah I jsut had to break for breakfast because I needed some oil. My brain was getting kind of sluggish. Well this weekend is the JBF sale. I have done the sale in the past and I have to say that I love attending the sale. I was actually going to be a consignor, however I started thinking about the amount of money that it was going to cost me to do the sale. I'd have to get some things for the sale and I am not really in the mood to do it. I'd have to make all the tags, print them tag them, then where would I get hangers ( I only use the hangers that I buy the ones that come in the clothes usually get left at the store), load all the stuff in the car, then take them over to mesquite, wait in the line because there is usually a line, hope that all my clothes and other items make it through inspection in a decent amount of time, then on monday go back to pickup all my items that did not sale and wait a few weeks for the check in the mail or the paypal deposit. Well I'm thinking I can do it so much simpler. I can do it online and offer volume discounts. I might as well buckle down today and set up all the stuff I need to do the sale of my own online. I'm less profit driven and I don't charge an entry fee and all that so its really like going into a store and being able to browse and if you don't see anything that you want to buy you can leave no harm no foul. So we shall see, once again I am totally up for the adventure and I'm done with my breakfast so back to work. My boss is on me, oh I am the boss!!!! Loving it!

I thought

I thought that this was going to be much simpler. I have been trying to get the webpage set up all night and morning and afternoon. I've of course slept, ate, watched tv, and talked on the phone inbetween but its still the first thing on my list to have accomplished. I don't like it when things do not work for no reason. I have done everything that needed to be done and to my surprise I have still not gone live yet. The website is at least holding a page that says website coming soon. However that is not nearly as good as having a page of my own.

I spoke to a friend today about my new venture and she was like it sounds good. I know this is in pure infancy and I still have some basic research to complete and I am doing that in my spare time. Yes I have just enough of it spare time that is.... I hope to have the site up and running sometime this evening. I am hard at it and in the midst of getting a 38incher to bed! So it'll hopefully all come together so that when she awakens I can show her the middle closet! Get it that was an inside thing! Well I am off to another page to see if I can't get some help because as much as I hate to admit it I must be doing something wrong.

So what this about?

Well I have had this thought or idea for a while now but as my daughter starts to grow out of clothes much faster than I can even buy them, and the economy is questionable I've decided to stop sitting on the idea. I AM GOING INTO BUSINESS FOR MYSELF, I say again I AM GOING INTO BUSINESS FOR MYSELF.

I was laid off in November and this was the second layoff in less than three years. How scary for someone else to have the power to close a company and leave people scrambling to feed their family. I don't like the idea and both times it has happened its been with companies that have seemingly gone down hill rather quickly and made the decision rather quickly also.

I have another job but the hours are less than desireable and I would like to interact with my daughter more and I'd love to stay at home with her. Sending her off to daycare or to be kept by someone else is something brand new for her and I. In working for myself I can get work done at 10pm while she's sleeping or at 10am with her on my heels.

The flexibility and freedom for my own life, as well as the benefits of the store to others makes it a winner in my book. I know that just as much as a resale shop in the southern suburb area of Dallas/Fort Worth would benefit me it would help many parents and parents to be in the immediate area and further. This will be possible because the store will have an internet website so that you can shop from the comfort of your home or come visit us in the store. I am so excited. Buckle up because I am sure this is going to be interesting.

I have the support of my family, friends and most of all my daughter which makes this a much easier decision. Tootles Lisa
