...sand castles


Hello. Last evening was spent wrapping and prepping USPS boxes for web orders. The UPS orders were dropped off yesterday so that the stocking can be hung by the chimney in a timely fashion. I have to be at my shop early today. I am receiving an upholstered furniture order, an accessory order and a man is coming in to pick up a bistro set from my floor. It is a surprise birthday present for his wife. shhhh! Things seem to be rolling along. All it takes is a lot of time, energy and cash. If anyone is coming up short on any of the three items listed, here are my replies.
Time: Turn your clocks back again. Like sands through the hourglass and all of that.
Energy: Sugar free light Ripe It Fuel...by the gross.
Cash: well, on this day two years ago, Ron Paul, not to be confused with the drag queen Ru Paul, raised a record amount of money online in a single day "money bomb." Over six million dollars in 24 hours.
Not that cash is the be all, end all. Gifts should come from the heart. I know, if you had a sand dollar for every time you heard that. But,if my website could only do a fraction of that amount! Have fun today as well as working and studying hard and keep it together as best you can. Realize also that sand castles look great sitting on a beach but there is no crime in washing them back to sea. We get many chances to build new ones.
