I blame.... me!

It's nearly 5am.

I've been hard at it all evening (and now most of the night) still have a ton of work to do on the business plan.

If we get through the meeting tomorrow with our loan, I will crown myself the queen of blagging. C went to bed 3 hours ago - she loses!

Good thing I'm a night-owl. And that it's an afternoon meeting.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Really. I'm gonna get it presentable.

Any minute now.

Cuddly bank managers

After four hours of sleep, we printed a workable business plan and survived the meeting. The bank manager was a paternal type who was really lovely and helpful and sweet, and was impressed that I could remember all the figures (there are lots). I didn't point out that I did it so recently they're practically still in my short term memory.

He can't lend us any money... but you can't have everything, right?! The meeting went well other than that? Apparently they want to see pesky things like experience and turnover before they dole out the six figure sums. Pah. Completely unreasonable, if you ask me.

It's okay though, because he's put us on to someone else who can. Yey, house!
