Business Update

| | Tickle My Senses (5)

I finally got my plastic pass in that I applied for weeks ago, it came in with the post this morning. I went to meet with my accountant today to sign the company papers. Of course I ran into that sweet old man again on my way there and yes we said hello to each other as usual. The papers have been waiting for me ever since I ended up in hospital on Wednesday the 24th of October which seems like ages ago. I had to fill in some forms and sign them, he also gave me my business papers and my certificate. Since we have done most of it online I don't need Maurice his signature so the business is now officially up and running.

Tuesday I will meet with the bank to set up a business account. My accountant arranged a meeting for the three of us which saves me a trip to my branch. It's not that far away [7.5km] but if I have to take a bus there it's a bit of a hassle. This way I don't have to make the phone calls and organise, I only have to show up and bring the necessary papers, so what seemed to be a problem before has been solved today and I'm extremely happy about it since I still don't have the energy to arrange things.

Taoism and time. It all seems to balance if you can be patient which is something I still have to learn at times especially when I need to recover and I can't accept that simple fact: but I'm getting there slowly...

Stuart:Yes Stuart... it is possible but only if you know how to use your charm and know when and how to play a damsel in distress... :p

Jim: I wish that one day would be today... I know what you mean but I can be so impatient at times. Well at least I have that pass in... I remember a post about having to wait another eight weeks to get an interview *hehe*

Hi Tess!

My assumption is ('cause I don't know what a plastic pass is) that you are getting everything done for a new business perhaps? IF this is the case whooo hoooo for you! If not, what is a plastic pass?

;)

I'm an accountant by trade and have owned my own business now since 2005 and it's been awesome.

I wish you good vibes on it all.

BTW patience is certainly a virtue. I know it's tough at times, but all good things come to those who wait... yadda yadda yadda.

;) Patience for me at times is difficult. Like waiting for someone to get me chocolate like yours! hee hee

Love and Light Dear Tess,

Monica

Hey Monica, you are right! :) I am busy setting up my own business and the plastic pass I mentioned [the red text it's a link to a previous post btw] is my National Insurance Number which allows me to work here in the UK. It took eight weeks to get an interview and then another four weeks to receive the pass [if I was approved that is ;) ].

You're an accountant? Awesome, well I know who to go to if I decide to set up my business abroad *hehe* Thank you for the good vibes :) And about patience: I know exactly what you mean... Perhaps you should give me the email address of this 'someone' so I could send an anonymous link [read hint] to my post? Yes Tess can be bad *hehe*

ME? I don't think so... tsk, pffft....]

Indulgence: English full breakfast once in a while when not counting calories, Indonesian fried rice and a Sateh [Nasi Goreng] like my great grandma used to make, Thai Tom Ka Kai or Thai Green Curry Noodle soup original traditional recipes, definitely a peaty Islay Scotch preferably shared with my best friends in Scotland [Inge and Frank] and a Dutch coffee when I'm in Amsterdam with a piece of Dark Chocolate!
