10. If I were in a position to set up a business, that would be a great idea

But for the last ten years I have not been able to work regularly. I've had to stop working on the farm and will never be able to run it myself again. And I am looking at more major surgery probably this coming year (knee replacement, hopefully on both knees so I can get it over and done with).

So right now is not a good time for me to commit to any new endeavors, even if I had a good feeling about this.

There are some other possibilities to help out this woman and to also help out a friend who needs work. I want to see if that would be a good solution.
