I have been very part-time basis since starting my business in March. Struggling to get 2 shows a month. :cry: My goal is Director by June '08... January has 3 shows booked and I have 3 catty shows out now, that I will put in for January. Wish i could do full-time!!! Desperately!

My $ goes towards misc. bills every month. :D
 
My goal is for full-time, the same goal since I started in Fall of '05, however, I am part-time. I am glad DH does not depend on me for monthly bills. I am not quite sure if my $$ actually contributes to anything, once I pay for what I buy. DH says it just helps support my habit. (shopping) My goal for 08 is to actually contibute to the household finances, and show DH it IS actually more than a hobby.
