Continuation the beginnings of our CSM story

OK backtracking a little here......or to contnue on with our story.
We did place the order for our brand new Circular Sock Machine ( CSM) on November 14, 2011.  We decided we wanted to enter a venture of MrB learning the art of hand-cranking out knitted socks, and maybe even other items when he has mastered the machine totally.  Again, we both researched, researched and researched.  We had many days even weeks until the machine was going to arrive and we knew we had to be prepared in every way.  MrB was studying his you-tube videos over and over again, and me setting up all the steps to make this little venture flow by talking to people on the phone with muncipal laws, provincial laws, federal laws, NS Joint stock, thinking of a name, doing up paperwork, going to search a name and the one we wanted was rejected flat on the spot, coming up with a spur of moment name, and finally submitting it on December 15, 2011.  on Dec. 20, 2011 we got a letter in the mail....YES our name was approved.  Now we had 90 days to register it.  Ok we are good with that, actually we were both so happy that things seem to be going along very smoothly.  It was December 23, 2011 that our machine arrived.  Oh Happy day, it was so exciting that I think both MrB and I did do a little happy dance if not phyically our heart and soul sure was doing some dancing inside.  Now who would think two grown 50 plusers would be so excited about receiving a boxed, and crated machine?  Well we were.  Oh yes I forgot to mention the table came the day before so that gave MrB time to set it up varnish and check out all the ins and outs of it beforehand.  It was like the calm before the storm.
