Launch Day!

It's finally here!

Yes this afternoon, after months of work, I finally launched the new business venture and website.

It's so exciting to be able to finally share it with my blog reader over at Little Pieces and I am feeling a mixture of relief, excitement and happiness at finally getting it done.  I just know that this is the beginning of an even bigger and more successful phase of my business.

The initial response has been so positive and affirming and I am really grateful for all the support of my family, friends and blog readers.  Mr L has been especially supportive even on the days I have been tired, grumpy and frustrated by slow progress!

I'm off now to enjoy a glass of wine before I get back to marketing plans, Twitter campaigns and blog post writing.  No rest for the self-employed!

A floaty sort of day

Another miserable, grey day again today...it's beginning to look like our summer will  be a complete washout this year.  It does mean however that I can get on with my goals without the distraction of glorious sunshine (every cloud and all that).

Woke up to fresh, homemade orange juice this morning - I'm really loving all our culinary adventures of late and the move toward making more things by hand.  I think I might start a weekly project related to cooking and try and inject some creativity into my dishes again as I'm sad to say I have been a bit lazy with it.

I'm thinking I need to start a proper routine again - when I first became my own boss I stuck to a rigid regime but that seems to be falling by the wayside and I am not feeling as productive as I could be! Hmm, what would my ideal day look like?...
