Cyber Monday???

Here it is...the end of Tuesday...and I'm still waiting

for Cyber Monday sales....what???

Ain't gonna happen....!!!!

Wow...why did I work so hard the last couple of weeks???

Oh well...I didn't want to pay my rent anyway!

I really do wished the media would stop with the

'we're in a recession...the sky is falling...hold on to your money'

mania they have going on.

I do think that some folks are definitely affected by what's going

on..on Wall Street...and I'm talking 'working folks'...like us.

Folks have lost homes...due to the mortgage fiasco...others have lost their

jobs..due to cutbacks..bad for the working guy (but almost always good for the CEOs)

but, most of the people I have talked to were affected more by

the high gasoline prices than they have been by

the stock market roller coaster.

I noticed the media didn't say much right before 'Black Friday'...

oh well...it is what it is.

I really...really...really need to STOP counting on

good sales on Cyber Monday. I'm not really sure who benefits

on those days...but, it's never been me...in 5 years I have YET to see good

sales on that day!

And...I'm doing all of this ranting for ME.

You see...it's my way of keeping my books...sort of.

If I write it in my blog

I just check back...next year at this time...have a look

and say...

'Oh yeah...Cyber Monday...I've never had even

average sales on those days...no need to work any harder

than usual'

And..then...I won't be upset when the sales aren't there.

I haven't done this in the past...someone said I should

never write about slow sales...it makes me look..

well...less successful.

What the heck...I'm not trying to impress anyone...

I'm just trying to pay my bills!

And...that's not looking very promising this month!

But...life goes on...and so do I.
