a great week and life just gets better

Well we just did a very tiring and hard work bank holiday market. The sun was out and it was busy and the day was great. Makes me feel sure this is the right direction. I just need to find out the best markets and stick with them now so I make enough to survive. Its looking good today. I had a vague hope of selling out which didnt happen but sales were steady and we could make this work. So long as we can pay the bills and leave enough money to replenish stock all will be fine. Tomporrow gotta see an accountant to try to deal with this stressful tax stuff...................

Its been busy.............

I have been stressing. First the Vegan Fayre which was ace tho the coffee was suspect in that the "soya milk" didnt curdle and altho sometimes I manage it mostly when I make coffee with soya milk it curdles. The stuff in jugs sold at BVF didnt! Worrying but too late and all over with anyway. Will note for future reference.

Then had to make it work. Got my first mail order which is amazing. Hope she liked what she ordered! Then what next? Had loads of hassle uploading the website and total disaster so far with forwarding the rest of the domains to see the same thing. I have had very detailed instructions tho from web host ( Godaddy -) their customer support when you are an idiot with doing your own website is ok it seems cos have managed most things once I email for help! Havent had time to try yet since went on tax course for new businesses ( HMRC run) and now scared to death. Most unproductive 2 days ever after that downloading and printing credit card statements , bank statements and loads of wsated time and wasted paper making excel print company accounts to 2 sheets and one page wide each month. Finally worked out you adjust the % manually and try test page! Well never been actually been taught excel ( my excuse) and when did use at uni was just for graphs so I can do that but not the admin type stuff. Well can now!

Spent today at Rugby - ok but yet to work it all out and did stock take- for scary tax return stuff! Tho still have to actually weigh the ingredients in stock and no idea what I actually have!!!! Well vague idea but theres all sorts of weird things from failed experiments that I probably have to sort out now. Tho spose could be time to have a clear out. Also time to reorder stuff short of which is loads.

Doing tomorrow and monday markets so hopefully the bail out will happen now before the company goes under. The BVF saved me last time. May be this time it will be bank holiday. Wonder how it feel to actually start to make money or does it ever happen to normal people. Will it always be down to luck if I get bankrupt tomorrow! Its all fun I spose and have to say I have never felt free-er or happier!
