Okay..is it just me or is everything deadly quiet?

We have had a great couple of weeks with super sell thru and now we are not getting bids & no e-mail questions!
The EBay Boards are quiet and then I checked the Boards here and it is so very quiet here too.

SO...just thought I would make some noise and see if there is anyone out there in Vendioland who is also finding it quiet. Maybe people just don't like what we have listed this week...

Quiet here too. Not even many feedbacks. I hope buyers are not waiting to leave negs! I sometimes get the feeling that my listings are invisible at times.

Be thankful for the couple of good weeks you had. I had a really bad month in April but I vow to make it better this coming month.

Thank goodness...there really are people out there!

I am very thankful for the couple of good weeks but all of a sudden it was like someone flicked a switch and as Amber says...I feel invisible.

I checked the Omniture Traffic reports and last month around this time there were about 175 people viewed my Storefront...today the count is 3...YEP...THREE! Now that's invisible!
I need to clear some space on my shelves but the only way I can do that is for people to buy, pay and then I can ship!

OK...enough complaining from me!

If you're not outside this week, you should be! Normal for May, especially with the odd winter many people experienced with ususual cold, wet and snowy weather. I'm spreading mulch, raking magnolia leaves, and mowing. And shopping on eBay in between.

Be thankful you can be outside. Here in Ontario Canada it is cold and wet, not a good time to be outside. One of my buyers a bit north of here woke up to snow this morning.

I was outside for 6 hours this morning in the British Columbia rain and it is unseasonably cold!

The two best things about the rain is that it keeps our skin soft and the grass green!

We leave in less than two weeks for Alaska, then we're in Victoria at the Haterleigh Heritage Inn for the last week in May. If it's half as nice as the pictures on their website I'm sure we'll have a great time.

One thing about our weather in Victoria....it changes. At 8am this morning it was so warm I didn't need a coat but by 11am it was cold & windy and this afternoon it is gorgeous and all the clouds have headed down to the Olympic Peninsula.

Fluffy...Beautiful choice, excellent location. We live about 5 minutes drive or 20 mins walk away from there.
Don't forget to let us know the dates you will be here so we can have tea.

My sister-in-law and hubby arrived home yesterday from their Alaska Cruise and had a great time and our best friends are leaving about two weeks from now..maybe the same ship?...Serenade of the Seas.

I mentioned just after we moved to here from Sooke that we can see the Ferry Terminal and it is getting pretty crowded this month. Three big ships in a few days ago.

We are heading out on a Cruise too but a little different..we are going on a European River Cruise on October 4th. The Danube from Budapest and on to Passau, Germany.

See...it MUST be slow because I am sitting chatting!
