June Update

First update. The movers. Our stuff is STILL missing. It was supposedly on the truck 2 weeks ago, and was going to be here last wednesday thru friday. Hubby called on Wed and he was in New Mexico. Thursday he was in Colorado, and would not get here till this weekend. Now, I stink at geography, but you have to go from Colorado to California via Canada to have it take a week. Seriously this is beyond ridiculous. I dont even know what to do at this point. I want to withhold part of the payment, but I'm afraid of what they will do to me. They do have my credit card info.

Second update. My business. Have gotten 2 small sales online this month. And one of my coworkers has bought 3 pairs of earrings so far, and wants to buy more. So this month hasn't been too bad sales wise. The problem is that I am still spending way more than I make on etsy :)  But it's sooooo fun to shop and buy great quality handmade items.

Third update. I greatly dislike my current traveling job, but my mom and sister have each found a potential job for me, both in the city I live in. One would still be in a Skilled Nursing Facility, which is not my favorite setting. The other would be in an outpatient clinic, dealing with a lot of workers comp patients. Much more the type of setting I love. I love doing hands on, manual therapy. And you really don't get to do that in a nursing home.

So, thats about all thats going on in my life right now. And its more than enough for me!!! I just remember to learn from all my experiences and enjoy the moment, because you wont get it again.

  2. I am so sorry about your moving woes. Have you tried contacting the Better Business Bureau about your problems? Or even a TV news that has a consumer advocate reporter?
    I'll say a prayer for you!

  4. You are really having a time of it. I'm sure you're ready to strangle someone.

    Tell the movers you are ready to turn this over to your lawyers (plural). But you're right about the possibility of retalation.

    Better Business or somewhere to lodge a complaint?

    Being helpless in a situation is terrible.

  7. Your items will eventually arrive, hope it's sooner than later. Do what you like better; it's a long part of the day to work and not like it.

  14. omigosh... that's horrible that you're still waiting for your things! I'm with romantic. We had some problems with a company and they were doing their best to brush us under the rug... 2 years of trying. Finally we made a video of the problems and wrote a letter to the news stations. Before we sent it to the stations we sent a copy of both to the company we were having problems with stating that if things weren't resolved immediately, we were going public. Yes... it's a threat but it worked. They called within an hour of receiving the email.

  19. You need to contact the owner of the company and the better business bureau and your credit card company if that is how you paid. They can't hurt your credit if they have not delivered. Plus putting something onto a credit report is hard, there is a process and I doubt from the sounds of this company (they aren't very professional or organized at the very least), I doubt they have the staff on hand to process through credit bureaus.

    This has gone on long enough, and it is a lot you are missing... you have to do something!! :((

    I am sorry you are having to deal with this.
