oh no copschick, we weren't going to go THERE

Just in case you have seen his signs, this is The Wall Doctor who has his signs littered on streetlight poles all over Powder Springs, Paulding and Marietta. I know him through a business group and am pretty shocked as he has been out to my store to give me an estimate for repair work and spouted on and on about his Christian ethics while leaving me a insanely high estimate compared to others. His daddy is a pastor. Go figure

It is Limerick Day, one of those poems that is fun. We celebrate this day with 25% poetry and short story section and would like it if you will post a favorite one or see if you can try your hand at making one up. Who is up for the challenge. In case you don't know exactly what it is, here is a description and sample below. We may make up a few up if it gets to slow. I hope that doesn't happen as we have lots to do today and hopefully a lot of customers to take care of A limerick is a five line poem. The first, second, and fifth lines rhyme and so do the third and fourth. The first, third,

What! Didn't you see the squirrel with the shiny necklace just go by? Who are you anyway?

I am so very sorry for your loss. I suppose any post I have can trigger someone that had a bad experience with something and without knowing, I may have caused you some pain. Not intentional and of course, as usual, sometimes I just can't win if my mouth opens or my fingers are typing. Truly sorry about your dad, blessedwithboys

Does humor have to be in everything????

No idea!But I know what happens, when that sort of thing is done

At least you just didn't make something up from nothing like SOME people

pick me, pick me!

hmmmm, never thought about that, but true. I guess I am so quick to jump to attention for the next customer that I my manners don't always catch up with me On that note, L8TRG8TR

I just realized I haven't popped in here to post our meeting. Once again, your invited to the West Cobb/Paulding Chapter of Women who Barter. The group, despite the name, is NOT all about bartering but more of the concept of "pay it forward" and to help other women succeed in business. For me Barter is a big part of it, as I am a bartering fool but it absolutely is not a prerequisite for you as some businesses cannot barter for various reasons. It started only a few months ago and the group already has had 130 members which is still growing fast. I am fortunate enough to run the West Cobb/

I would be more offended if I was on the phone or in person with them but online, no. I often find I have sucked enough of my life away online and need to get to work, get back to work or take care of a customer at work (me thinks I work too much!) so it is not on purpose but happens often. Susan, who is neither Rhonda or Britaini today.

Your cards sure look purdy!

We take the books in for 'trade credit'. It's not an even trade, but your trade credit applies towards half of your book purchase price. So, if you have $5.00 in trade credit and go to purchase a $4.00 book, the book will only cost you $2.00. It's necessary for us to do that in order to keep a cash flow in the store. I'm here (Rhonda) today and tomorrow and Britaini will be in Wednesday~Saturday. So if you have some books you need to trade in just let us know . If I have just totally confused you with my answer on the trade-ins, FB me and I'll explain in more detail. I confuse mysel

Lol! I agree .
