The decision was finally made today to keep our Chicago operation going. Phew! Close one. You may not have realized it was in peril, but with cutbacks from our major customer there, we had to look at it very seriously and we have been doing some serious negotiation. Anyway, it's on, which is great because after all the work we have done to get a decent manager out there, it would be pathetic to shut it down now. The good news is that with all the cutbacks, I plan to suspend travel there as an emergency cost-saving measure until January when we expect business to pick back up. Who hoo! No more Chicago and, it just happens to be most of the winter time too. I certainly won't miss leaving mild TX in mid winter to go visit dreary Chicago. That place it COLD in the winter time...

WHOOOO-HOOOOO!
Sound VERY convenient. Maybe a little too convenient... did you cause this "financial trouble?"
If you're not leaving during winter season (at least not that often) means "no more excuses" for not having a party with hot cocoa and cinammon swirl cake - maybe donuts too - at your farm. Oh boy, I'm on my way of getting our family ready!
