The other call was a caseworker who was very involved in my mother's life, calling to tell me that she was in the hospital in the end-stages of pancreatic cancer. I know. I know. shocking right?

As a follow up to my previous entry, spending the day with Laura at her fabulous establishment, Beetz Me. As previously shared, my husband's circumstances were very similar to that of my own.

I am sure veteran sellers of the world-wide market can reach back into their mind and remember the feeling of your first sale, right?

Okay, so the week started out slow.I have to admit. I worked for my friend in her boutique on Sunday. And now that I'm older, I always seem to need a day of recuperation.
