the glamorous life (yeah, right)

I thought I would share a little bit of a day in the life at the Barn! Today's shipment: 98 boxes, about average. At about 125 boxes I would get some help, otherwise I am on my own. So this looks like alot to bring in, you say? Well after I bring it in, I unbox it, put it away and take the boxes right back out the door to the compactor! Today was also a light furniture day, no big furniture to lug, push, or roll in the door.I also need to find all of the backorders, put them aside and call customers to come get their products.
My "Desk" -jealous yet?

Tools of the trade, "must haves" if you will. Glasses to see the tiny sku numbers, a box cutter, well, for cutting boxes, a marker to identify products and lots of diet coke.
Well, this is as good as it gets. No dressing up or make up for me. I get filthy working in the barn.

  1. Mom, you are so awesome! I couldn't last one summer (as we all know), and yet you're what keeps that place running! If only they knew how lucky they are. Love you!!
