I’m so excited.  I just finished refitting the basement as a bright, cheery (windowless) home office with one of those crazy huge monitors (I ended up going with Dell hardware over Apple because at the end of the day, I know Apple is amazing but I’ve had Dells all my life and I know how to work with them).  The website programming is done, not that I’m expecting to be bug-free from here on out, and our go live date is next week. 

At a last minute thought, I switched the basement to its own line of internet access (this will be easier to determine the necessary bandwidth and also for billing and tax purposes).  I was thinking about getting an internet via satellite setup, but not really knowing the ins and outs I wasn’t sure if it would work in a basement.  Also, I didn’t want my kids picking up the line on their laptops upstairs, so I also nixed the wireless internet service; so much for running my business from my couch.  Actually, that’s a lie, I bought a really long Ethernet cable to compensate, and a ridiculously plush chaise lounge.  Hey, a working girl needs a little TLC.
