decisions decisions.....

im just going to type here, just to get it all out, lol it may not make sense because i cant say much right now, but i REALLY need to get this down in order to get it straight in my head, lol feel free to ignore me!

We have had the opportunity arise to make some pretty important business decisions, not straight away, but things will start happening within the next few months, at the moment we are self employed, but if we do what we are thinking with the people we are thinking of then we will indeed have our own business as such with huge potential and room for expansion, going into it with a consultant and business manager who are VERY intellegent and know what they are doing, if we dont do something now, will the opportunity ever arise again? maybe, maybe not, we have a lot of debt (business - ird) over our heads already, do we want to add to it? it may be worth it, it may not, more risk, we have a baby due in November, so a young family, it means moving, not far, but still moving which is a huge mission anyway, and i love it here, adore it actually and will probably be an absolute mess knowing i have to leave even though it means that maybe we will be SO much better off a few years from now than we have ever imagined we would be. it means Kaylee wont be able to go to the kindy i planned to put her in, will have to wait until 3.5yrs for public kindy, it means that i have to rehome my cats (because of where we would have to go) which i HATE the idea of, and it means putting up with very little (space, assets, income) for a few years to get there, can i do that with 2 kids? i dont know, it means that i will as such become a work at home mum, doing invoicing, telephones, bookings, accounts etc, a lot more than i do now, but if i do it, it means we dont have to pay someone and i can still stay at home with the kids, it means employing a couple of people, wow at 24 i never thought i would ever be a business owner and a boss, but i may just be. it means business meetings, proposals, buy-outs, closures, openings, more meetings (where do you buy a preggy business suit from! i may just need one! lol) it means stress, but it means great earning potential, huge income (eventually), paying off all debt, expansion into different areas, buying our own home, having assets, investments, brand new cars, overseas holidays, being able to afford more than 2 children (at the moment we just cant) everything we ever dreamt of in as little as a few years time, but its still a risk. all else fails we can always go back to what we are doing now, knowing there is steady money rolling through, but the risk is there, the inconveniance, although short term, is there, ahhhhhh ok, really i just had to get that all down, in a way to get it straight in my head. LOTS to think about.... i think we will regret it if we dont take that risk.

ok!
