Progress!

Wow, it's been a great couple of days for me.

First of all, I met with an accountant, Ron Vigoren. I happily recommend him. He was able to answer my questions, give me information I didn't know I needed to ask about and make me feel like I could actually pull this off. It was a very empowering meeting. In case you're interested, his contact number is 801-377-2177.

Then I received written permission from my landlord to have a home-based business. Thank you! The reason it took so long to get a response was because it turns out that the HOA here has pretty specific rules about what types of businesses you can and cannot have. I appreciate her due diligence.

Next I went to the bank to set up by business checking account. Thank you, Bank of American Fork. Getting the account was easy, and I was able to get an account that meets my needs. (I was specifically concerned about a high minimum balance and fees. I love my bank.) As if great service wasn't enough, the Pleasant Grove branch has a large tub of toddler toys in the lobby. My kids happily played while I took care of business. Oh, and my daughter was thrilled about the candy selection, too.

On my list for the weekend is to buy more printer ink. My home-based business application requires a few photos and I'm all out of magenta ink.
