Gift Rep Sandy

If you hadn’t noticed, the days are starting to get shorter, the nights are cooler, the kids are heading back to school … change is in the air!  Late summer is the time of year that my sale rep business starts transitioning from tourist season to holiday season.  Even though we have some of the hottest days of the year in August, I need to start thinking about Christmas, holiday products to offer my customers, and new products from my list of vendors (lines I represent)

With all these changes, comes new pages and updates to my website:  www.idahogiftswholesale.com.  I will be spend large chunks of time over the next weeks to gathering information, taking pictures, and offering new products to my retail buyers for October/November buying.

On the home front:  I need to take my laptop back to my friends at Cactus Computers in Moscow.  The crazy machine is running slow and crashing programs even after I doubled the RAM capacity a few weeks ago.  We bought a Toshiba laptop in March of last year — a change from our usual Dell purchases – because we were told that Toshiba made the best laptops.  Well, you could not prove that by my experiences with this one!!  Hopefully, my friends can fix the problem and I can go about my business.

We are still spending everyday at the downtown office to access the internet.  It looks like we will not be able to replace our high-speed internet at home.  Malcolm has set up a dial-up service, but I have not yet tried it.  I suppose I will want to go to sleep waiting for it to load up, but at least we will have service at home again.

So enjoy these last days of summer.  I get back with an update on the fall changes as they unfold.
