Well these past two and a half months have been a whirl wind of speeding time. I now own a business with a partner. We decided to do our own thing. I searched and searched for a job for over six months applying for j0bs daily (and that is no exageration) to no avail. I heard from two employers. One was a crook trying to get money out of unsuspecting suckers. The other was an American firm who feel it's ok to investigate a persons finances in order to work for them. I told them at the pre-interview that my financial situation has no bearing on employment with them. The didn't agree, I told them someone has to say no to them. We are Canadian we don't give up our rights lightly. The thing that amazes me, is that Americans who are all about the right to do shit, allow it to happen.
So, speed up to now, we are running our little gift store in Newcastle and doing ok, but not great. I am always scheming and dreaming of ways to get customers in. Our lives are so busy now, tomorrow morning for example we have a 7:00 a.m. meeting and then a meeting at 9:30 for advertising in the local paper. then off to open the store. Thursday, I work at our store, then have to be over to our regular job to work a close shift. PHEW! talk about busy.
Our Open House is coming up soon to, Saturday, November 12th. Man we have so much to do before then!!!!!!!
