Forgot to mention that yesterday completed a nice wholesale order, not much in the way of profit, but the money is banked. Two nice orders came in last night, and few more scattered in today. The toll free line rang today, wrong number, and the cell phone line rang also, customer. Printed off more mailers to send out, this little extravaganza is costing over $500. And people want catalogs? Checked into other forms of advertising yesterday. Specialty magazines, WOW! And then the magazine has a website that costs $125/month for not much more than a google ad. Although have spent $300/month on google before, just not in the mood right now.

Have spent a small fortune on inventory this month. Some of which comes straight from manufacturers in third world countries. Like must pay them via Western Union, must have to answer questions with the US Customs, must get and maintain special import/export licenses. It was all a little intimidating. And now, I am sure they are very, very busy, so e-mail communication has come to a standstill. And manufacturing time becomes very slow. So slow I have contacted a new supplier, I told him I would not pay until the order was in my hot hands, and he agreed, so we will see. He can manufacture some new items, that my old one cannot, so we will see there too. My old supplier whom I have had for over a year now, is much slower at returning e-mails this month, and shipping delays have gotten serious. But, I haven't paid either so I am not out anything. Except inventory.

Where does the time go, I thought there would be so much spare time. OK, I am enjoying more TV time with the kids, and the kitchen is cleaner. But there are home improvement projects galore, maybe this weekend. Good thing I am no longer married. Good thing I am no longer employed. Tomorrow night, is girl friend night, that too is a good thing.
