Hi! Happy Sunshine!

Psychic Day today! 11 to 4pm. $1.00 a minute! Cash Only! There is a chance there could be two Michaels reading here tomorrow. Atova will not be able to make it but it looks like everyone else will be here...........

We have been busy this week! We have done about half of the returns to the publishers. We should finish them up next week. Then we will have to wait for our credits. In the meantime, take a look and see if there are any books that you could like us to order. We should be able to order from every publisher again. Therefore , we expect to be here til the end of March. While we wait, probably from the end of next week to the beginning of the following, we will continue to clean up and box up my Mom's office. After that we might have some closed days while we wait for the credits to come in, so call and make sure we are here.

We are still ordering goods: ie rocks, oils, incense, etc. As a matter of fact, we will be placing another oil order from Arcadia on Monday. If you call ahead with your order and pay we will give you 20% OFF. We sold over 15 Helichrysums in less than one WEEK! Thank you!!

In the meantime, see if there are any books that you would like us to order and give us a call. It will help us get out of here quicker....

We do still have 4 interested parties in the store. We are praying that someone will step forward but we are also showing Spirit that we are ready to go if we do not get a buyer. It does feel a bit empty here but there are still many great deals!!

Many thanks and much gratitude!
