Well, it has been a while. So much as happened since I was here last.
Jill, my friend from Green Bay, Wisconsin, escaped the cold and came for a visit on her way to Miami (where she really escaped the cold!!!). She was here and we got lots of things done. Unfortunately, there was not much time for visiting.
A new programmer was released on Monday. That always brings with it a flurry of activity with help files to write, the web page to update and customers to notify. I have already taken 6 orders on it since I finally put it out for sale last night!!! I guess announcements do work.
There is lots of work going on to update the existing programmers with new address and phone number information. This has bogged down other fixes. It's a frustrating situation. As much as I know the address changes are vital, I hear from the customers about the issue fixes. I think I'll let the programmer take a few of the calls!!!
The Universe continues to supply all our needs. The sales in our business continue to grow...Rapidly. I can't wait until I can get order processing transferred to my help. That will definitely help ease my load.
I showed the house on Monday. It was funny, I knew Monday morning that I would be showing the house. I made sure the bed was made and the dishes were picked up. It was an easy showing. The gentleman was looking for functionality more than style. I think that he was pleased.
Things are going well today. The large orders that I'm working on are falling into place easily. I should be able to make UPS with no trouble. Luckily there is no phone support today. At least I will not have those interruptions in my attempts to complete these orders.
Relaxing in the hot tub is still the highlight of the day. It's all I can do not to indulge first thing in the morning too. I resist and walk on the treadmill instead. That sure gets me going.
Work awaits. A day of boxes and packaging. Boring; but in it's own way rewarding.
