I have ordered the soap bases (42 pounds worth). I ordered 5 more kinds of essential oils. 12 cans of dried goats milk, and three cans of dried buttermilk. 1,500 cards, and 100 magnets from Vistaprint. Decorative sheer organza bags in purple, green and gold. Dead sea salt and latch lid canning jars for exfoliants. The other day I picked up dried lavender and chamomile from a chinese herbalist, along with almond, jojoba and avacado oils. The only thing I am missing is labels. I still don't know if I am going to try and print them myself, or if I will go to a printer. Oh, and I also need to have a large sign made for display at the farmers' markets. Oh, and I need to pick up sales bags.
The other piece of the puzzle is the farmers' markets themselves - how do I forge that path, how much does it cost, do I need to own my own table, etc?
On the good money news front, I contacted my credit card company on Thursday and they are freezing my account due to the layoff - no interest and no payments due for up to 24 months. I also called and got a cheaper monthly rate for my car insurance.
On the bad, I found out that I STUPIDLY forgot to sign my unemployment form, so I have to wait another week for the check. Yeah, great time to do dumb things like that!
Dear readers and friends, please send some good vibes, prayers, wishes or whatever you've got my way, because I have placed myself on quite the tightrope. Many thanks in advance for your kind attention.
