These days it seems self employment is becoming more and more common with the rise of online selling abilities, rep businesses and the 'Boss Babe' movement. I'm all for anything which makes people feel more empowered and able to handle their own business, no matter what size. I've been in this game for 6.5 years now, although much more so in the last 2 or 3 and I thought I'd share some of my thoughts and experiences on self employment. These are personal to me, relate to my business (small printing & craft business) and life, and are unfiltered, you may not agree with them but that's okay you don't need to. Do not expect help and advice; but don't assume people won't offer There is no sick pay or sick leave, if you aren't working, you aren't earning Not all businesses are the same, don't tell people how to run theirs It's okay to be jealous, just don't let it effect how you work 2 similar businesses do not have to b...
Every Saturday I will be featuring a small business I have bought from. This week it is B.Blissful B.Blissful sell wax melts and are one of a couple of small businesses I have purchased melts from recently. I ordered a few different scents and have tried a few out already. I think I have now discovered bakery scents are not for me, I ordered a couple of cookie type ones and I don't think I'll be trying them out. There is nothing wrong with these and the scents are great they just don't sit right with my nose so I don't think I'll try them.

It's strong enough to break through a blocked nose but not so strong that it feels like your nose has been slathered with a vapour rub (which I worried it would be).

I'm finally getting on the multivitamin bandwagon For someone who takes a fair amount of meds I've always been rubbish at taking vitamins. I don't know why I can remember other things but never something as simple as a multivitamin. After being told I have low iron levels and knowing I'm vitamin D deficient I think it's about time to start taking my vitamins. I went onto MyVitamins website and ordered some bits which I think will help to cover what I think I need. I did check with my GP before I started because I am on a few different things and I know certain medications and vitamins or herbal remedies can clash, I'm alright as long as I'm not taking St Johns Wort. I've checked all the levels and doses and made sure none are at risk of overdose too. I've also ordered 7 day pill box so I don't have to keep my tablet bottles with me all the time.
