insurmountable mountains

I’ll admit I have been deeply buried in paperwork recently, especially during the day. I am trying to split my time so that during the day I am home and around with the children because I HATE dragging them into work with me and they hate being there! I’ve been doing the numbers, designing flyers, working on the website … ohh and cleaning the house during the day, and then as soon as hub is through the door at 6pm I’m off to the workshop to pour and pack orders!

It hasn’t been brilliant … but I guess that much is obvious or I would have posted about anything fabulous eh! The business is still ticking over and that is just about it. It’s very disheartening to know that I have such great products – not blowing my own trumpet, but I DO … yet people just aren’t buying. It’s the same whoever you talk to and whatever business they are in … it’s slow everywhere.

I am just hanging on and hanging on because I am still convinced that ONE day my hard work will pay off and the business will generate me some serious money!

Right, hi ho, hi ho it’s off to work I go! With a bucket and spade and a hang grenade hi ho, hi ho!

Dreams & a lack of periods (not related!!)

I spent the best part of the morning number crunching on the accounts, then I went into work for a bit to send out some orders and then spent the afternoon with a friend talking about dreams for the future for the business. Afternoons like that are the best ever … just chatting & chilling out with a really good friend and feeling positive & happy!

I like afternoons like that!!

Soooooo anyway, mega swift subject change … I have no fucking idea what is going on with my periods at the moment! I had two very close together a while back, and then there has been nothing for ages. I decided to stay off the pill because err, well there isn’t much need to be taking it at the moment *ahem – moving swiftly on* … so anyway I stopped taking it in the hope that it would help to sort things out … but it’s been nada, nothing & zilch for weeks now.

I have had a really REALLY bad backache for days now … I’d put it down to the way I have been hunched over my laptop number crunching – but it is actually really really hurting. I’m wondering now whether it’s a sign of a killer period incoming!
