There's a portfolio of documents and info to be created which will take ages
Some elements are already in progress and have been for some time - on the Tourism link there's a blog that I created some time ago - it has a more modern theme and really is the way I would like the QAAconfidence Sole Trader Co. (mustn't call it a micro company!) to go eventually but these things take time to put together and the startup had to happen very quickly to resolve some issues.
This blog started off as a private 'not for others' blog. It needs the name changing across to reflect the blog title - a task that is quite easy and wont take many minutes or data time.
some elements of this start-up process can't be included in the diary - for reasons of privacy and pure common sense and yet the temptation is to throw caution to the winds and create a true diary with no exceptions for personal reflection and improvement.
It would be really cool to be able to have areas of the blog private and yet still have some pages public.
August Bank Holiday looming at the Weekend means Tourism - a week of Tourism input
... and as that leads into the School Term starting again - there is lots to sort on a Child Care Over8s and Tutoring.
The Amway Direct Sales definitely need some input
Lots of background sorting techie tidying
Lots of email writing
Lots of consolidating online profiles -
but making some money has to become the most important focus... and the pool of Freelancing folk has just kept on growing with sites and info so all input so far has to be checked to make sure its perfect.

Monday is a free day - to catch up with all kinds of things ... Sunday of course is a day tuition can take place
not the best day ...
There is an old Google profile to add - and chasing Freelancer work will depend on the smartphone repair and a couple of other hassles.

The Google plus and circles application -social media sharing concept needs lots of work, its quite cool from the Android as you can post without lots of hassle directly to circles but from the pc its eating data...

Found useful info on here, I can add it to rss hopefully here too.

Couldn't Resist it - and Wordpress.com cant be monetised so its a tad out of the new philosophy ...
Part of the Q50Nottm series - how are we going to survive as women, having to work now to 67 - when the world knows that pension schemes end women's employment and start paying at 60??
We know the kids aren't worried, or the young employees etc etc the Management think it's funny and that there's someone with a more sensible pension (male) just coming up to retirement age who we can rely on ... how silly
Nottingham East Midlands is traditionally 'Light Engineering' when it comes to manufacturing (where the money really is North of the Home Counties) and everyone is on their own Salary - no family Salaries to speak of.
So heres
http://creekandpaddle.wordpress.com/ with Boardwalk Theme.
The Pics and the Posts need tweaking - decisions on whether to have the info on the post or make pics, images with block colour at the top for the Post info!!
Edits for another day...
Freelancing - should be Direct Sales day but circumstances ...
HOWEVER, the Freelancing is kind of in place and may save the day - but timings for working are going to be important - and reading reviews of the companies, treading carefully is paramount.
To stay on track while the rest of the info that needs to be put together is rattling around awaiting logical formating - Art is a good solace.
Making a set of Stationary and some logo style artwork for timings has resulted in around 7 hours.
whilst the programme/s being used are familiar and there are no learning issues, the manipulating colours can take ages ... and using my own style is always too fussy and twee for the majority of folk!
So... keeping a focus on what's what...
and resisting the temptation to make a blog called CreekandPaddle
EvolvingUpdate.wordpress.com is made in around 15mins to showcase 'stuff' and plan for some teaching basic classes.
TadahZ!

New Poster on QAA-Confidence Blogspot - and still Smartphone hassles!
The Poster needed a frame around it - and my fav framing app is on the android --
Looking back to 2007 We hardly had Facebook even then - so many set up hassles then - full blogpost soon
In short - the Android has just been set up to work successfully with all the online info, mostly via email and a couple of apps - it should not be down and not working and there must be a way to recover it. A backup goes out each evening and there is some info that is on a remote disc so hopefully it can be back running as it means i can be mobile and not stuck to one place.
A tad worried about the sites that have been created profiles on etc etc.
Very conscious about being really careful of the online virtual assistant links.
Have a Student on the First Tutors interested, hope its genuine and not a dodgy website etc

Next Task: Assessing Image and Designs
OK - designing using Serif programmes and their Digikits by including personally designed elements and taking photo's and using those should prevent copyright issues.
Researching an image search comparison website ...
Exam Board links on Qaawyrd.wordpress
Several pages with just the links, but is the best way of curating the info: and then rss leads can go on the appropriate rss feed link website.
The Qaawyrd Menu needs sorting next.
A Pearl shared from Next Mobile Browser
Search | Pearltrees http://www.pearltrees.com/dilydaydream/qaa-confidence/id14553945#item152204975 【from Next Browser】
Obviously Profiles are at stages of registration, colours can't be made in line with the Sole Trader Co, and the Peal will continue to evolve.
Themes often are unlike their demo pics
These arent, these do what they display easily. Triton Lite and Mystique
An hour for two screen pics, Frames, Links & posting
The Internet isn't particularly slow at the monent: but one blog was marked private and had to be changed.
Serif Craft Artist, PagePlus, WebPlus, PhotoPlus are inexpensive and awesome
Luckily these were bought in the last phase and updated and are more or less second nature to use.
Twitter Philosophteabk password sorted
A lighthearted twitter probably to go with keepingupfinethingsqaa
Lunchtime sales plan possibly
Tried to download Instagram to the Smartphone
It doesnt want to download, even with 45Mb free ph space
Trend Hunter Registration made
Checking for Freelancer research ie make logo - its important not to duplicate

Ubiquitous - Language can include Computing Jargon, Programme names, Company Names etc
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubiquitous_computing
The Internet of Things (on the above link)
Note: (NB)
Psychologically testing INTERACTIVE MEDIA where the Radio or TV reacts like facebook pages adding info into lyrics to try to control you as a responder to adverts. ...used to be called Brainwashing.
It's Sending you to your SuperEgo all the time instead of being your own self and/or Ego. A constructive criticism ability has to be encouraged to counteract being pushed to think against normality. Normality is where there is no reach from Electrically Processed Information. Existing in GreenSpace without a mobile phone for at least half a day a week helps.
You may then find 'thinking' and 'Logic' possible and 'Meditating' can give your brain a rest.
In the UK Citizens have freedom of Speech and do not all sing from the same 'hymnsheet' and its not a personality fault or a deviant thought process - its the natural human condition. They can develop as Individuals including in Religious matters and have a division of Religion and State. Hence the Internet, particularly games social media and business areas online are popular. Decency is accepted as the norm.
Uncontentious
Is not in the Webster Dictionary
http://www.webster-dictionary.org/definition/uncontentious
Contentious is in the Mirriam Webster
http://i.word.com/idictionary/contentious
In the UK it could also (a lateral thought) potentially mean raising a Lord to the Peerage! (remotely possible, a Lady aka MPs Euro MPs maybe)
Are Ordinary People Uncontentious if they pretend to be Robots?
Or is this just a Scientific Management, 1950s viewpoint?
An Internet Biz 'Skeleton' is in place
Now the simple Sketeton of an online presence has been made (and its unlikely potential customers will go elsewhere as the business is in reality locally based) - while working on the Business and it's strands, threads, a 'Beautifying' design process can start for set hours of the week as a background task, hopefully with a realistic timeframe.
The internet presence with a few tweaks may bring in a small income stream.
Fresh Air is Important.
May make a hubpage with discourse - content from my own perception after evaluating its potential and if its worthwhile, but until then any more info in this commenting on the present circumstance and maybe an Economy and Politics viewpoint will go to
http://broochesandwork.wordpress.com
My brand is one that stays 'real' and can assess brands, even multi musician groups, genres with different identities (most folk understand game playing and avatars)
Is it 14.51, 10.16 or Local time in another zone? 10.11?
Seriously for the shelves in the Internet Browser Companies in their location and then search engine optimisation, which time you work to could matter. Just accessing bband etc.
Craft Online Hobby Style but the Program Makers and Affiliates are big business.
Serif Craft Artist and Daisytrail Online
Checking on an old Squidoo - now Hub Pages
Hubpages are automatically monetised like Squidoo pages were.
Creating an Intranet!
Simply because missing essential info could be disasterous in Sole Trader terms, after being a New Business Office Leasing Products Finance Manager in 1981-3 the philosophy was no lending to anyone in business less than 2 years, no finance for Personal Computing - and setting a hurdle, a barrier that was difficult to successfully pass. The simple fact was 'Big Business' won and Councils wanted the ordinary person in PAYE work with contributions.
Taking away the Social Security element of a Community will not promote successful Self Employment or Sole Traders.
The Sole Trader aim is usually in a Trade and one to create a lifestyle, but in 2015, to research and set up info collecting real time online (its not real time otherwise) and a Social Media network and ecommerce start-up is time consuming. To keep up with changing Govt policies (local became volunteer for benefits for example as cuts to budgets happened-are happening but this is dependent on the Private Sector employees and businesses paying in). Changes in policies and information from a focus on Individual Rights to the Macro viewpoint and no other considerations, possibly investment driven.
Social Media to compete.
Soft Trades are more dependent than businesses such as Hairdressing or Garage Mechanics (but they are swallowed by money for petrol going to Supermarket chains).
Can Local Trade and a re-emergence of a Multiplier (£5 in a local area that stays out of the bank and makes Severn transactions locally, can be worth £35.00 to the local Community).
If in a marginal MP area, can Sole Traders survive political 'machinations' particularly if those MPs are on their way to high office, or obscurity and worse potentially vengeful tactics?
How do the Midlands Areas survive not being London, the North West or Scotland? A form of Unincorporated status aka N.America, USA either party political style would be disasterous.
Unemployed and no Social Security, Pensions disallowed, loans dried up are potentially on the horizon.
An Intranet with a 21st Century focus and worldwide comparisons and real time updates might illuminate some alternative, creative, innovative solutions.
Sole Traders are not necessarily easy pickings or without networks.
Amendments in 2015 mostly about overseas sellers.
Electronic Commerce Regulations 2002 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tuition and Over8s ChildCare are arranged in person. Direct Sales have the parent co online info, Virtual Assistant needs checking - partic the non UK ones, most will use disclaimers.

Let me Update Pages from a Smart Phone!
That sinking feeling, its late- very late, or early (but thats for folk who have been to sleep awhile) and you just check the blogpage edit - to see if it looks nice kk - and eek the last edit didnt make it to the blogging mainframe shelf with your name on it!! The smartphone just cant update pages ... (smug ..wordpress can but u cant Monetise wordpress.com!
The rat-race folk won't understand ... all should have been sorted, u jus know u double checked ..
The Sky kids meanwhile - those brought up with the Spice Girls and Disney telly just know the update is still parked on a stripey deckchair on the beach in Hawaii!!
As a parent whose older I also know about 'Oufful Dust' and Telly TV Town where nothing is real and everything is fake and pretend and they think loo rolls and washing up bottles are toys!! I ask u - and those mean Skittles (old folks kids telly - The Skittles family of woodentops were baddies) are mean - I know this because of Sooty and Sweep and their comics, (no offence I like sizzly sausages) and then there's Mr Mayor ... Another form of Make-believe that involves posh coats, gold chains, posh building steps and funny goings on that can make you laugh for days. No Offence etc etc
Life may resume normal service (a good friend once upon a time Ms Normal - another story)
Nothing surprises ... Its just the internet phasing ... phas...ing ...in and out with the messages on the bus-stop broadband ...the next bus is at ... that or the radio announcements will probably arrive on the blog because of AScii or Universal Code
Sigh ...
FourSquare or real??
And will someone tell the American twit that there are 'interesting' folk from S America and he really should get an untwisted lifestyle or an antidote as he just might be biting off more than ...
Chewbacca!! Another lateral link...

Qaawyrd Tuition - Lots of effort to tidyup the Internet Search page results
A Less Important task than Joining Online Agencies and sorting other http://qaa-confidence.blogspot.com/
biz 'threads' and actually Tutoring, Direct Selling, Sorting Affiliates etc - and so the unrequested info will laze around on google search results for a while. One low priority task each day!!
Amazon Associates - One reason to use Blogger!
Just received the ok email - which has taken a few days, not too long.
Ok its just the way the Internet is ...
Searching and staying up to date ideally should be more than a one-person micro co.

Twitter link update hiccups to Blogger?
A potential problem as the updating twitter information is important.
