VACATIONS & THE BUSINESS - 06/29/08 02:30 PM
A vacation rejuvenates the soul & is considered essential to keep well, mentally & physically. Yet, it's not easy (for me anyway) to take a vacation.

A GRATEFUL CUSTOMER - 06/02/08 11:01 AM
This morning started normally enough. While I'm doing "floor duty", the mail arrived. Included therein was a card addressed to me from one of my seller customers, whose closing took place recently. She sent me a beautiful thank you card, and a check, in appreciation for the job I'd done. Wow! A testimonial & a little extra (4 comments)
