May I jump in here? Sue has been in the process of closing her personal business for two years: she puts her clients' needs first, and has continued to stock more Aurifil because her customers continue to request specific colors. She has a contract with the Website providers, and yes, she did sign on with them for another year, with reluctance. Her husband wants her to close the business, and it has taken longer to do so than she intended. I admire her guts: I'm too much of a coward to open a business of any kind. It would be my hope that she could find another daring entrepreneurial spirit who could take over her business and eventually buy her out. Anyone with the derring-do to be a businesswoman in the economic climate of this day and age????? ...they have my full respect and encouragement. Keep on, Sue, let the good deals continue, as long as the process takes.
Oh, and for full disclosure? Sue doesn't know who I am, as she has many happy customers in Michigan.
