Yep, I am not very good at keeping up on the blog. I need my sis in law to do it for me! (did I say for cheap or free? Cuz I have a college kid now... :) It has been a year of cake and not so cake. Last spring and summer I was slammed. It slowed a bit in the fall and I have only had 2 completed orders in the last 3 months. I am hoping it's because of the time of year. I have had plenty of requests for donations...I haven't had any real business from the donations though. I just need to make sure this year...I do more paying orders than donations. I cut prices again just to get specific types of cake orders to build the portfolio.
Time...Time...Time....don't we all wish we had more of it? I didn't really think about new years resolutions for 2011. First year that I can remember not having resolutions looming over my head causing fits of guilt for not keeping them. Thats a plus! Here is a resolution for this year though...Learn to say no. I plan to stay organized and sane by completing the obligations I have and not taking on more before I think about them. hmmm....so now that I am thinking about it and taking the time to write things down...let's make a list. Not in order of importance.
1. Family Genealogy
2. Cake Business
3. Use Cake Cricut
4. Get proficient with coupons
5. Regular date nights
6. Blog posts that are more specific and not so random... :)
7. Get through Trek
Time for bed. Busy day tomorrow. The way I figure it...I get to sleep and relax after 8:30pm next Thursday night.
So glad you're back! You've been missed. I'll help you out of course, no worries about $$, unless you are having me make posts every day, then we'll talk. ;) We need to figure out how to make you a button to post on others blogs, like Julies, mine, other family members that are near, to get you some FREE advertising. :) Maybe your brother Jaime can help with this.
ReplyDeleteI was meaning maybe Jaime can help with the button linky thingy, not blog posting for you. ;)
