Here we go, 61 days left in the year. We have three birthdays, three holidays and probably a bunch of weather. Lots going on over the next two months.
We had maybe 15 or 20 kids last night as Dea had three other families with her when they showed up. Davy, Abby, River and Wes showed up around an hour later. They hit Vail first. Wes, who is 5 years old, told Abby (his mom) and I quote, “focus mom, focus, trick or treat”, a few minutes after they walked in the house. He was clearly on a mission and didn’t want to waste any time watching his parents visiting with us. Too funny, guess you had to be there, but a 5-year-old saying, Mom, focus, focus, was hilarious.
Today the Halloween stuff will come down and Christmas will start going up. Probably just the tree tomorrow and then Lori will take the week getting the other stuff up. We’re going to be much smarter about what we buy and spend money on this year as the money just isn’t available. No matter what Joe and Kamala tell you, disposable income is way down.
Lots going on at work. Happily, a number of really good things are happening. A really cool VC firm out of New York wants to buy our Brand Lab. We don’t want to sell though, just yet, so it looks like they want to buy a stake in what we are doing, which is developing new brands. A few other things are happening too, all good. Of course, we still have some challenges with some of the smaller estates, but we’re working our way through those.
Snow next week, so they say. We haven’t had anything measurable yet which is nice. The later the better. Have a great Friday, be well and stay safe, God Bless.
