Post Easter ~ 123

Post Easter, 123!  Why did I give this post this handle?  Well for two reasons: one being the Easter Weekend is all over.  And even though it was a semi-hectic week for us, two birthdays, company and the Easter Dinner day, MrB still managed to crank out 3 pairs of socks.  Yes, 123, 3 pairs of socks.  The second reason I call this Post Easter is because I had to do some investigating to our own Canada Postal rates.  I discovered I did not know this as when I launched the facebook page/site I did not anticipate that I would have to find out this important , but informative knowledge in order to add the shipping costs to an order someone may want, when purchasing our socks and wanting them mailed across the country.  Well I soon got in tuned with the information I needed, and today I mailed my first two orders across Canada to Saskatchewan!  Now some of you that know me and my roots, will perhaps think, she is mailing them off to family and that is not the case.  Both customers are ones which I knew in my childhood and young emerging adult years.  I both recently became reaquainted with them both on facebook in the last couple of years.  I was thrilled that two separate people from my past now in my present periodically, wanted to and very much desired to be proud owners of a pair of socks from Socks Made On 88!

So we have a collection of socks, newly created ones, ones from our stash created earlier in the past few months, and some socks making their way from NS to their new destinations.  How exciting is that?  I must admit it is very exciting to me!  I wanted to do a little happy dance today, but I did not just my heart did, thinking ok this is a nice little venture to be on and so glad we decided to do it :-) big smiles had by me!  That pretty well sums up my weekend and day on a very high note.  One more thing to add while I am here....I never dreamed I would be so very happy, being retired, loving my life and doing something together as a project that both can very much sink our teeth into and just in general like what we do!  It is not a job we HAVE to do, it is job we WANT to do, and that makes a big difference especially in this phase of our life! I want to mention also while I am on a roll....I have always liked to write but never thought I was good at it, so now I also get to tell a story in my blog and that too is a lot of fun....I get satisfaction from coming here from time to time just telling my story of what's new and taking place in the life of msb at Socks Made On 88!  Sometimes with me the little things are soooo the BIG things!  What's that saying, don't sweat the small stuff! Well me I dont' I just lap up the small stuff up and enjoy it, and can't wait to report small stuff on Socks Made on 88 here at the blog.  But thats all folks for today, so till next time!  Toodle-loo
