On a lighter note

On a lighter note I now know why there is so much money available for government grants. Because it is a big pain in the arse to get a stupid grant. Last week I started the process of applying for a grant specifically for women who own small businesses. However, once I got into it my instructions were that I first need to apply for a DUN number, whatever that is. So I go to apply for a "dun" number only to realize that before I can apply for a "Dun" number I have to register under Gov't grants. Then I go to register and come across more information I have to download and fill out. I wanted to throw my lap top across the room at this point. UGH!!!
Persistence pays off!! Sure it does, but Persistence can frustrate the hell out of me too. So at some point today I will reopen those files I had to put away to save my laptop and try and get this grant thing finished. Wish me luck! I should look into if they have a Dummies guide to applying for grants. Surely they do.
