some relief

Well, we've made it through another week. It's been several days since I've been panicked about the cash situation, so I'm feeling better about that. I've accounted for the next few major expenditures (another shipment of ice cream makers, raw material replenishment for the factory, etc.). We should be okay for a while.

Steve is going to a toy show in Phoenix (???) this week. He's going to scope out the market and see who he bumps into. He'll be carrying an ice cream ball under his arm so I'm sure he'll attract some attention!

We got another great order from Canada yesterday. They've ordered so much stuff we don't have enough finished goods on hand. We should be able to ship by Wednesday if we have enough citronella candles. It'll be close but we've got more on the way so we should be okay.

Judy, our bookkeeper, is in Hawaii this week. It will be an interesting week since I'm not comfortable with the tasks she's been handling like writing checks (I've just been signing them) and making bank deposits. There's always more to learn.
