Completely Off Topic but...

I am keeping my fingers crossed.

As some of you know, I own a small Trophy Shop in Richibucto.  This takes up approximately 30% of the space in my home so you can imagine how cramped we are.

I have expanded into various avenues like making t-shirts, mugs, coasters, puzzles etc...all using pictures...and eventually wanted to purchase a computerized engraver since the one I own is manual and existed in ancient times it seems.

I heard that there are a few programs for women in business as far as funding.  This is to help them in expansions and to develop their business.   So I just wrote an email to Shawn Graham explaining everything.  He is from Rexton and I've known him for years.

His secretary in Rexton said she's going to let me know when he's in the Rexton office again so I can go see him.

I hope that I can quality/apply for something so I can have my home back.

And if anyone knows anyone that has a computerized engraver for sale, please let me know.

Anyways, my ranting is over....have a wonderful day!

Hi Patsy,

That's true, I was a collection specialist.  I've been operating this business for almost 5 years but it's never been enough to pay the bills.  The customer base has increased, still not quite enough for a full time job but hopefully it will get there.

My dad has now offered me a job working with him in oysters.  He cultivates oysters and wants us (me and my sister) to eventually take over. 

Lots of stuff going on...thank goodness I'm not working....I wouldn't be able to concentrate....
