Today I decided to tackle my desk, which I have been blissfully ignoring for a while. There are piles breading piles. I took everything off my desk and put it on the floor, and then started organizing into new piles. At first if felt like I was just re-shuffling, and then slowly but surely order began to be restored. It does feel good to be able to see my desk again (or at least more of it).
Of course, throughout my organizing frenzy, I was checking my email icon for incoming emails, so I could continue to address issues related to orders, the warehouse. And then there it was - an email from one of my largest national retailers that has stores online and offline. They carry nomie baby online for now, and it has been great. At first the email started out as a shipping question, but then after a request asking me to call (which was out of the ordinary, since I find that 98% of everything happens via email and in the ether), I learned that they were signing on a brick and mortar store!
Needless to say the news thrilled me. When I first signed the agreement with this national chain, I was told that it was only for their online store at first, and then they would "see how things went." The signing was over 8 months ago, so I had decided not to dwell on when the new stores would sign on, and be happy with the online business. I have learned that "watched pots really don't boil."
