My husband and I have decided that starting my cake business was a good idea and are in the process of getting my license!! It's taking awhile but we are finally starting to sort through all the legal stuff (I live in FL...so this esp. difficult and time consuming and expensive).
We figured it is going to take me awhile to build up my business enough to make enough money to payoff the money we borrowed so
in order to pay off this venture in a reasonable amount of time.....I have to go back to work full time!!!
I start next week, I went back to my old job....different position...but more money!!! But this going to be difficult!!! ALOT of late nights/early mornings!!!!!
The only silver lining is that w/this job we will have the money we borrowed paid off in 1 year....plus a few extra debts!! Then I can quit and do cakes full time!! All the money I make off my cakes until I quit will be put into a seperate account and saved until I quit my fulltime job....so when I go into this fulltime...I won't be in the red!!!!
I'm hoping I will be so busy, this year will just fly by!! I'm also hoping I can figure out how to handle a fulltime job, a two year old, a husband, cake decorating (I'm hoping for at least 1-2 cakes a week...for now anyway), and somehow still have fun!!! But since I know how long I will have to do things this way......I know I can handle it!!
This all seems doable right now.......but we'll se how it goes once I start working fulltime!!!
And somewhere in my free time (
) I think I'm also going to write a book about how to start a small 'bakery' business in Fl 
....man is this a pain in the rear!!
