Yesterday I had my friend Jason, came up to me and said;
“Japheth, I never heard if your new little one is a little boy or a little girl?†(he had not seen us for two weeks since the previous week we had been home from church thinking we were going to have the baby.)
(Me) “Well, it would have to be one or the other I supposed, eh?â€
“Yes Japheth, that is how it works! So… (about this time my wife, who he has not seen yet this morning, walks past us, still looking like she has imbibed too much on the watermelon patch. He looks down and sees her) OH….â€
The poor fellow! He got red and started stammering around and if I hadn’t felt sorry for him, it would have been quite hilarious!
The new store is up and running and I have been busier than I thought possible! I have been getting at least 5-6 customers a day with some days as many as 15! Thanks to a dear brother who gave us the needed money to mail flyers to 930 sewers in the area, I have been getting quite a few machines in for servicing. I have been so blessed by the Lord and my close friends that I feel that this store is hardly mine, but God’s since he is the one who prompted all these hearts and so bountifully provided everything that was needed.
This picture is of the out side of the building where I have two offices inside. I currently lease about 180 square feet and am using every square inch of it!! However, the main business, Search Resources, may not be staying there much longer and then I would have first dibs on their space (almost 500 square feet) and the bigger sign you see out front. For the time though, I am very content with the space I have and am grateful to the Lord for His leading in getting me there. (see previous post for that saga)
No baby yet though we rechecked all our dates and figures and the EDD could be as late as April 6. So we still wait!!
