Registered my very own business today

Whew, you are catching me coming down off a marathon session of transcribing recipes, sometimes having to squint to even read my own handwriting or editing the recipes on the fly knowing I always make some subtle changes to the recipe as I prepare it.  It has just been a crazy week but I am still on track and making good progress. Things are not looking too bleak.  Yesterday I emailed back and forth with Lesley and like the dependable trooper she is, she was able to roll with my craziness and it looks like we will have our photos for the cover.  I talked with Adela here in the office yesterday and she helped with me the sizing for the photo for the cover.  Today I emailed Todd to see if he can still help with the layout in InDesign.  If not, I will have to quickly find plan B.  I have spent hours last night and today transcribing recipes. 

I also set up my own business this morning.  George Henry Press is born!  My very own publishing company, named simply, after the street I live on.  How exciting I now own my very own publishing company; Martha Steward Living watch out.  Oh sure, my company has no assets, lots of debt, no published product yet, has paid no taxes, employs no staff, doesn’t even have a logo.  But it is all mine!  I also talked with the publisher again today and got some more questions answered.  So many balls in the air I feel like a one arm juggler in a Russian circus, keep ten balls in the air with one hand and out of breath, but fearful if I fail I will be assigned the job of cleaning up the poop from the dancing bears!  Hey, can you tell I am getting punchy?  Still running, and running hard, no rest yet, and I can’t let myself ease up thinking I am getting ahead.  Sore eyes, tired fingers and aching back will just have to be tolerated until the book is at the publisher.  After that, I may collapse for three days on my couch with a tub of ice cream!  And not ice cream I will have made by hand, creamy store bought ready to be eaten grocery store given ice cream!  Better run to get back at it, more work awaits!
