It's been awhile. Just over a month but feels much longer. Think the approaching holiday season has something to do with it.
What have I been up to...I am still looking for work. Though I applied to a cool position that will allow me to travel abroad and help people. I am just waiting to hear back from then which could take four more weeks (I applied two weeks ago). I may be volunteering at a hospital soon. Oh, and my little dog just passed away a week ago. She was the most adorable thing ever. I miss her.
I am also working on getting an etsy shop open where I can sell my drawings. I started to work on it last year but then all the legal stuff made me put things to the side and I haven't done anything since the beginning of the year. So now I just have to decide if I want to do this as a hobby or do this as a business. To do this as hobby I would just need to open a separate checking account to keep my personal finances separate and when tax time comes I would just need to report income on a line on the basic form. To open a business requires filing a name for the business with the county, getting an employer ID number from the IRS, a business checking account, and different set of paperwork for filing and claiming taxes (and more paperwork).
Exciting changes and projects to start me on my path in the new year.
