Edited; 9:45 p.m.; 2/28/09 Being sick is quite the leveler in life; a dose of reality, if you will. After being unable to break a 102 degree temp for several days, I finally had to go on a high dose of steroids a few days ago.  The doctor asked to speak with whoever was taking [...]

So, I caught an ugly case of bronchitis over the weekend and have been flat on my back for the last couple of days.  I’m having a hard time kicking it and have been put on bedrest for five days in order to try to prevent it from turning into pneumonia. If things aren’t better [...]

Out of everything we had to move out of the office this weekend, this little beast turned out to be the most trouble until Honour and Mary figured out a way to tame it using only a screwdriver and their sheer strength.

Our first customer of the weekend was a lovely gentleman who purchased up about half of our available furniture in one big swoop.  He came back earlier this afternoon with a little treat for us, saying that we looked like we needed a little chocolate when he was at the office earlier. Why, yes we [...]

Well, hello again. The sale is going very, very well.  I only have two things to say about it: 1. It is amazing how a simple yard sale will bring the crazies straight to your front lawn. and 2. It is amazing what those people will actually buy. We got a bit crazy earlier and [...]

We spent most of today getting ready for our moving sale which began with a private indoor pre-sale earlier tonight.  We didn’t even have price tags on more than a few items when people started arriving, but it didn’t seem to hurt business considering over half of our major items were sold within the first [...]

For this past Christmas, my step-grandmother’s boyfriend (yep, you read that right) gave me the ultimate gift, a generous gift card to none other than my beloved Cracker Barrel. I headed there with bride-to-be Katie last night after I got out of Bible Study with Cousin Cate. Side note: Whilst listening to the DVD lesson [...]

Somehow, in a situation that could only have been worked out by God, Cousin Cate and I happened to have my laptop out when our good friend, Cara, found herself in an internet cafe somewhere in Ecuador.  The result?  A full 45 minutes of real-time chat, our first communication outside of emails since she’s been [...]

So, some big changes are coming my way in the next few months. It might take me a bit to explain it all out, so I hope you’ll forgive the length of this post. I’ve casually mentioned a couple of times that Starlite is entering a season of transition, some of which I can blog [...]
