Raindrops

As some of you are aware, I spend roughly 20 hours a week managing a satellite warehouse in the Pacific Northwest for a Canadian Design company that offers classic baby clothes, rattles and is the inventor of the infamous PPTP.  The remaining roughly 20-30 hours are spent pursuing my passion in the studio. It's a great life and I am grateful.

However, as today's journal post below illustrates, on my first day back from our Christmas break, the warehouse was threatened with flooding. The usually idyllic duck pond/stream behind the warehouse had swollen with recent rains and breached its banks. I called in the Professor who was still on his Christmas break to help me raise everything to at the least 4" off the ground. While I was madly trying to send out the accumulated orders, he kindly gave me his last day of vacation. Many thanks, my love. You rock!





I learned a valuable lesson yesterday:
Don't be afraid to ask for help, even when it might appear to inconvenience the person you've asked to help. They may get a charge out of your request. And it may make their day.

You are valuable so when you need help, let people help you.
And remember, I love you. Bunches.
