*SIGH*
The positive thing was that I relaxed and visited for five hours straight at the Beanery! It was a lovely day even with the issue of my business mistake hanging over my head. I didn’t want to “whine” any more, because then strangers, acquaintances and friends all would apologize for NOT having the space or ambition or desire to plant more fall bulbs. I told myself that at least it wasn’t like produce at the grocery store: the product which doesn’t sell won’t go in the dumpster!
One of the crazy things: I STILL have a case of amaryllis bulbs coming soon. They are ordered at the same time, but shipped later. Now, I HAVE noticed that, although the “regular” fall bulbs are not selling on eBay, amaryllis bulbs ARE… not for great profits, but they are being sold. Maybe I should try that. I might also consider planting each bulb and offering them at the craft fair in November in town. I said this before: I’ll NOT do this to myself again.
Nothing else of much note happened today, although when I banged my shin for the third time on our new bumper hitch for the old horse trailer that Gary just bought, I thought THAT was significant. I have hit it with such force that it’s amazing I didn’t at least BRUISE badly. So when I got home, it was a simple maneuver to remove the offending hunk of metal, and place it gently in a handy spot for when we need to actually move the trailer. Okay… I swore a bit and practically THREW it, but I was angry only at myself for walking into it not once but three times.
I’ve been working on a certain simple CRAFT for Christmas presents, but you will have to wait until that Season is over, as I don’t want to give away any surprises to certain dear folks who may be reading this!
Thanks for visiting. Talk to you soon. Happy Thanksgiving for Canadians!
