No Rest for the Weary
I would like to issue a big "pat on the back" to someone very special in my life: me.
Having used an Acccess Database regularly for the last 4 years, I haven't had much experience developing and programming a database. In fact, not since my illustrious days in government.
I knew I was going to eventually have to develop a database to house the information that is crucial to my business idea, but I've been putting it off, remembering the frustration of my last project (tracking all 180+ nominations through the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee).
But tonight, in a record-setting 2.5 hours, I have the first draft of a database--complete with reports for clients.
This accomplishment has given me new enthusiasm for my big idea, and I'm determined not to let the stupid Maryland SBA (although their website says they do free counseling, it's only for businesses that have already started--and what help is that, really?) or my stupid housing situation (I can't run a home-based business on federal property) keep me from persuing my dream of being independently wealthy and saving the world.
Now if I could just finish my research on THPON. I really should be done by now, but I'm having a mind-block that won't allow me to summarize any more foul corporate information.
I hereby commit to finishing THPON tomorrow. After I see March of the Penguins with the family tomorrow, of course.
