A few staff movements there, FSI. But all seems to be running smoothly.

The weather has been changing lately. How did the sale go? Did it all go down OK?

The weather has been like a roller-coaster here too which is hampering my work on my house, good to hear the the sale is getting close...it was a life saver for me when I finally sold mine.

FSI
Here March has been pretty bad as well so far, and I haven't had my car washed even once...And with Z gone I guess the business has shrunk but the money in the bank (or under the mattress, LOL) has grown...

Often, once we learn the new technology, we wonder how we ever did without it! Your dad must be so happy that he has you and Ann there, he can take his vacation and not worry.

I like how you are seeing a boost so quickly! And you are right, the rain cannot get one down for the sunny days are not that far off! As I was reading your blog it began to rain with a little thunder, too! So it was a bit eerie! We rarely get rain in the summer in the desert so I relish the times when we do! sam

It's great that the rain gives me a free (and needed) car wash, but I'm sorry it puts a damper in your business.

Hope you had a nice weekend. Is it still raining today where you are?

I reckon our FSI can handle the business really well now whatever
gets thrown at you.

Its nice you have come so far in the business, those discounts are usually given moreso to those that pay cash, think they got it in reverse

Odds and ends posts are a nice way of keeping us up with what is going on.
I need to do one of those myself.

FSI, a new system (register ) is always intimidating at first....
Employees get used to the same equipment to the point they can almost do trasactions blindfolded, but then along comes something new, in this case the register, which has to be learned, and anything new is always a challenge...once everyone gets the hang of it, everyone will be saying "Man, we should have had this thing ten years ago."......

I think you have the knack of it all now FS and a bit exciting in a way to be in control.

Sounds as though things are humming along nicely
Good to read of hard earned self-confidence. The rainy season gives bloom to flowers, many of which feed the lil' birds who in turn fly over a multitude of cars...:)

Your dad most definitely needs the vacation FSI and knows he can trust you to look after things while he's gone.
