Growing

So. It is Friday night. I'm 22.  I should be out on a date.  Or at the movies.  Or hanging out with my friends.  Ya know, something!  I'm pretty sure that's what most people my age are doing.

But I'm not. I'm home transferring my past year's financial information to my new accounting software. In my sweatshirt.

Yes. I'm a special kind of lame.

But after hours of typing, trying to figure why the balance is off by $.02, and wondering why I've spent so much, I get up the courage to look at the profit and loss.  And to my surprise, it wasn't in the negative. It was actually really good, at least for me.  Better than I was hoping for honestly.  And it isn't ANY where near where I want it to be.  But to see on paper that this thing I started while I was in college just 2.5 years ago is growing is so, I mean soooooo, exciting to me.  Like I'm kinda near tears out of happiness (told ya, a special kind of lame).

I often think I've lost my mind for trying to do this.  I usually feel like I know just enough to be dangerous.  I always feel like I could have done better.  And I wonder if another session or wedding will ever be booked.  Normal worries for a business owner.

But tonight I promise to not worry about tomorrow.  Tonight I'm doing the "Holy crap, look what I did!! This is actually a real business!!!" dance around my room with my computer.  :)
