Misty and warm here.  The ground is so soggy that It's impossible not to track in.  We're having more rain and a high of 69 tomorrow.  Friday night it will drop to the mid 20's and Saturday it will go down to the low 20's.  My business has been suffering since before Christmas.  I can survive but life is boring.  It's too wet or too cold to play outside.  If I get desperate enough I'll wash windows, but it hasn't come to that yet.

One box, the one with the with the most fish arrived in PA on time and the fish were in great shape.  The others are out for delivery except for one that is in limbo but at least not going in the wrong direction.

It's going to the guy in Virginia who had me ship to his place of work because it would be safer than shipping to his house.  It was at the sorting facility last night.  It was sent to the local Post Office this morning but has not yet been scanned in there.  It figures...Of all the people I shipped to this guy was my favorite.  He saw my Angels and wanted them when I advertised them on Simply but he couldn't afford them then.  Before he bid he asked if he could pay for the auction then and there and pay the shipping cost on Jan 1st.  I said "sure" and just as he said the shipping money was in my PayPal account on Jan 1st. 

The other two shipments were delivered to "the front door" before 2pm central.  If a fish is dead they have less than an hour to contact me.

....I hate "the front door" notation.....our local carrier always rings the bell......if no response, he takes it with him and comes back at the end of his route.....good guy....and has a fish tank too...so he understands.... |^|
