The Post Office Walk

What have been doing...nothing but selling herbs and packing them, sending them out and shipping, day, after day, after day. My school break is just about over, and I never even saw it.

Yesterday I did one of my post office walks....the last time I blogged about it, I was marveling at the quantity of envelopes that I had requested...this is about two weeks ago. At that time I was excited that I was up to 50 packs.

Yesterday, I was out again, and had to go ask for more, this time I had to request over 100 envelopes in which to ship my orders.

Yes...this journey is becoming truly amazing. I am watching my life change overnight.

When I went to acupuncture school,( a second career) I wasn't sure it was really "me"...I was missing the business side of things....I was quite worried because it did not seem like the shoe was fitting. I was missing the moving and the shaking that business brings to the table...the excitement of the possibilities.

Now....out of the blue, the pieces of my future are crystal clear. I can see WAAAYYYYY far ahead and I like what I see. I'm going to be a giant pet business and I know I am going to be famous. Simple as that, I will be known for my products. I'm quite sure of it.

I'm working on my own private label right now. I am going to sell to veterinarians my special blend of herbal formula that stops the coughing of dogs. This is a big problem for the small breeds. I'm getting about a 90% healing rate...Time to take it to the big show!

All this excitement is kinda neat...but I do have to say that we are still missing Orbit. I miss the big ox......

I wish he were here to follow me around the house as I work this new business. What is really weird is that I keep catching shadows out of the corner of my eye. I noticed that the other day, it's a feeling of being startled. And it only has happened since Orbit left....I'm not quite sure if he's gone yet. I don't think he was ready to go, and he might still be hanging around...

I hope not, I hope he's up there playing away....sigh......

You know....I remember the shadows thing when my last cat, a really cool, HUGE, black cat was laid to rest. I saw shadows too, like he had just run past me in my peripheral vision. I like to think that he did move on, but that he came back to check on me once in a while, because when he left me I was alone without any other pets at the time. Orbit's ok, babe. He's just keeping an eye on you making sure that you don't get too sad.

I know. You walk in expecting to see them and sometimes it seems you do. Maybe...
