I have never been a 9-5er kind of gal although I have had my share of those. I have had many, many diverse entreprenurial pursuits over the years starting by selling Regal when I was 11.

My favorite one was making and selling cat beds and toys for 5 years. I sold wholesale and retail over the web and at local markets. I had over 50 shops I supplied and the 1st year I made 1000 beds myself(plus toys!). This was while I had a full time job and 3 kids at home. Where the heck did all that energy go...??! I still have many supplies and sometimes think about doing it again and selling them on Etsy.

Right now I have a 9-5 job 2 1/2 days a week and work the rest of the time at 3 other self employed pursuits. Never a dull moment.

But what I would really like to do is live on a float home and paint...wait I think that is called retirement. biggrin

I thought about opening a retail furniture chain of stores, and calling it Sofa King.

The radio advertising alone, will be quite catchy.

"When it's a great product, it's Sofa King great


Repeat it to yourself a few times, you'll get the gist of it .

I've owned and operated two businesses simultaneously, one was a floral shop and the other a landscaping business. I've sold both of them!

The most joy derived from my businesses were the delivery of flowers to those who were not expecting them....the tears in their eyes, the surprise in their faces, the shear appreciativeness of those who had lost someone near and dear to them ! That was and is the greatest joy! I will never forget the look on their faces nor the tears in their eyes! That is and will remain the utmost human loving experience! Maybe not important to some people, but to me it was!!
