207th New Thing - Started a Business Plan

I didn't have time to post last night, therefore I'm posting this late as this occurred yesterday (Mon 5/14/12).

As I mentioned a few days ago, I've recently been thinking of starting my own retail store. I met a fellow DU MBA alumni that owns a retail store to chat last week. Her advice was to start with a business plan so I downloaded some Business Plan Word Doc templates this past weekend and started to write my plan last night. Some sections of the business plan include Company Description, Products and Services, Marketing Plan, Operational Plan, and Financial Plan. I started with the Company Description. I think Operational Plan and Financial Plan will be the most difficult.

Just like signing up for a marathon, I know starting to write a business plan isn't really an exciting 'new thing' to do, but it is to me. It also means I made the 1st steps to making this a reality. I haven't told many people about my retail store idea because I don't want anyone to steal my idea. Someday I will reveal it, but it may be next year (I don't have money to invest in this business just yet). Stay tuned.

What did you do today?

111th New Thing - Took a Zyrtec

If you recall, I went to the dermatologist to get a skin screening for the 1st time back in December. When I was there, the doctor did a biopsy of 1 of the moles on my back (which came back as normal, by the way). The area was healing pretty well until about 2 weeks ago. The area around the wound started getting bigger instead of smaller and oozing. Therefore, I went back to my doctor to check it out. She said I was having an allergic reaction to something, probably the Neosporin . She gave me some new ointment, Vanos , and said I should take Zyrtec until the area starts to get better. Vanos (fluocinonide) Cream is indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses in patients. Best results are seen if used twice per day. Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. Zyrtec can be u...

364th New Thing - Ate a Mini Lemon Bites

My co-workers birthday was today so to celebrate they bought her a vanilla cake, a chocolate cake, and mini lemon bites from Costco . I had some chocolate cake and a mini lemon bite. These are made by Upper Crust Bakery . They supply Sam's Club, Starbucks, Costco, Kroger, Whole Foods, and BJ’s Wholesale Club. Both desserts that I ate tasted good. According to the Livestrong Calorie Tracker , 1 mini lemon bite is 130 calories, 19 g carbs, and 1 g protein. What did you do today?
