super massive black hole

sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo how was your holiday?

mine went very well i'd say. we saw benjamin button. we ate popcorn. we had gifts. it was splendid. my favorite gift? my parents got me a sewing machine. i would have put an exclamation point after that sentence, but the button on my keyboard is broken, so you'll have to imagine my enthusiasm. over all, i enjoyed my day off.

over the next few days, we're going to be doing the inventory. fun fun for everyone right? hopefully we can get that taken care of quickly so we wont carry the task over to the new year. also, we sent out an email, so go ahead and check that if you are in our Angel's Club.

over the last week, i've been getting ready to place a few orders on 01/01/09 so that we can have new stuff asap. if you're wondering why we don't order right now, its because there is a taxing law about our inventory for the year. apparently, before the end of each year, stores have to pay a tax on the dollar amount of the product currently in their inventory. since we want to cut back on as many costs as possible, we want to have as little inventory as we can for when the end of the year comes. so if our store has seemed out of stuff, its because of that inventory thing. if i could wish it away, i totally would in a heart beat, but we gotta do what we gotta do i guess, right?

my hopes are that when we place our orders, i hope to get them quickly so that you can have new things to play with in 2009. we also have our class schedule for january 2009 ready, so shortly after i post this up, i'll be updating the stuff page with that info. 2009 is going to be an awesome year, so prepare for greatness.

i'm not sure if this is coming kinda early, but i am starting to plan the Scrapper's Jam for Spring 2009. i know many of you were watching the blog for the Fall 08 Jam listening to me go on and on about the jam, so now you can do it again. as of right now, we are planing the make and takes, selecting product lines, and other awesome stuff.

at the last jam, we had our Quickutz products on clearance, and many of you seemed to really enjoy that, so this time around, we will definetly be bringing some great clearance stuff. i'm not sure what it is we will put on clearance, so we're gonna cross that bridge when we come to it. i will tell you that we are planning some great make and takes, so if you like doing those, be sure to make time for those when attending the jam.

i heard that many of you enjoyed our booth at the Fall Jam, so i'm looking into new and fun ways to keep our booth fun and fresh. i'm gonna be posting more info about our booth as the time passes. as soon as i get the dates for the jam, i'll be sure to let you know, we'll put it in emails and on here, so it'll be everywhere.

i'm gonna get going and get some inventory done, so i hope you all enjoy your day. and if i dont get on here until its too late, i hope you all have a great New Year's Eve with your family, friends and other loved ones. 2009 is going to be a really good year, and as long as you wish it so, it will continue that way all year long. Thank you all so much for 2008, i really enjoyed being here for you and i look forward to scrapping with you for a long time.

All my love,
