I WISH!!!!  But wouldn't it be nice to say and really mean it?  I dream of that day.  I have done it before, quit a job, but in today's economy, it's really not going to happen this time. 

I am however, building my online business so that one day, I really can say "I quit my job today" and mean it.  To never have to punch a clock again, or answer to someone else.  That would be fantastic!

Thank you. I have so many ideas then when I sit here to incorporate them, the block hits me and I get distracted by something else. I guess I just get overwhelmed sometimes.

Good luck with your business. I am also in the very beginning stages of setting up my own business. I love my job, so I'm not sure I will ever quit completely, but my parents owned their own business and while there is a lot more work, it's worth it since it's yours. Good luck!

Thank you for posting to ~3,000 Here We Come!~

I dream of that day too

Bonnie, we all wish you lots of luck with your dreams and plans. I'm a "retired" Florida Grandma, but some weeks my grandchildren and my Girl Scouts are almost a full-time job.

And yes, I know how lucky I am! LOL

OMG, Bonnie! I thought you really went and did it...and did not tell me first! I know you are working hard on the site and that you are working for the day when you can walk into 'you know what' and tell them 'you know what'

Good luck!

I wish I could, too. But, working for yourself is actually pretty hard. There are some advantages of working for someone else.
