3/26/07 - It's Monday night and I have spent the bulk of the last two days building a complex spreadsheet to assist me in my business to market XS Energy Drinks/Syrups to businesses. It's a niche market I can probably work on the road part time without interfering with my fun!
I have been putting in 12-13 hour stretches straight, getting a couple hours sleep then back at it again. I go out late morning and get a bite to eat, take a short drive, then back to the room to work! It's an obsession, but it truly is a hobby of mine. I just can't focus on the screen after that length of time! Anyway, that work is complete now.
This "wonderful obsession" of mine reminds me of when I was conceptualizing my Aging Support Network business. I would work after hours another 40 hours a week and pull all nighters on weekends I didn't have my kids with me. I finally found out at the end of the process and building a budget for the business that it would take about $350,000 to start it up! Oh well. Five years of hard work gone...literally. It was all on a hard drive that crashed and burned on me. I still need to see if a techie can recover it for me. Also, I need to see if my host server still has a copy of the files on their backup servers and can recover it for me.
Anyway, my sons are finally buying a filter set for my camera and will send it to me in AR.
Good night to all!
