Hey, Folks!

 

Just coming off another exciting week in my personal life and trying to get caught up on a bunch of end of the month stuff. I mean, this will be the last round of “End of the Month” stuff until I get back from my long awaited Bahamian vacation and let me tell you I can’t wait. There’s something about paying off a $10,000+ vacation that makes you want TO LEAVE RIGHT NOW..lol.

 

So last week, my Beloved Fiancee, Hillman, contracted a mild case of Covid. I will admit that I was a little relieved as I had it the week before and I felt like it was a good thing that I didn’t have to worry about a last minute Covid infection stomping all over our vacation plans. Unfortunately, Fate arrived to give us a kick in the ass anyway. Poor Hillman was getting out of bed at this place when he was overcome with dizziness and passed out on his feet. He ended up face planting on the floor of his bedroom fracturing the bottom of his orbital socket and causing to small brain bleeds. This was a concern as he is blood thinners due to his heart condition and it ended up with a stay in the hospital for a couple of nights. I want to stress that Hillman is fine at this point. As I mentioned, Hillman’s Covid infection was minor and while he is currently dealing with some discomfort and one heck of a black eye he will make a full recovery. We are hoping that the black eye is healed up before we go on vacation if for no other reason then so he doesn’t have to explain it the entire time we are at the resort.

 

Brian and I are currently working together to ensure that there is no loss of service while I am sashaying around the beach in a mumu and a floppy hat. It is a little tricky as there are a lot of moving parts to constructing and posting the weekly shipping and subscription lists, but I’m confident that Brian will handle it. If he doesn’t I will do everything to fix it once I’m back in the office. Maybe it’s just my imagination, but I suspect Brian may be planning some kind of frakakta sale while I am out of the country. Keep your eyes open for possibly more information on that next week.

 

Okily dokily…time for me to get all this lousy paperwork caught up. After I get all of this stuff posted I’ve got to upload Diamond’s monthly orders, do FOC for Penguin and Lunar, and then process the first 80 or so orders from the sub form. Have a great weekend and hope to see everyone at least once or twice more before I take off to the clear, blue waters of Emerald Bay!
