A buddy of mine has decided to head back west to California, he says that he has had enough of the east coast life and has been yearning to for sometime to go back to San Diego where he swears the weather is the best in the whole U.S. of A., I’ll give him no argument there, San Diego has always provided me with the most excellent climate and I would love for the wife and kids to pack up all of our stuff and move there ourselves. But it doesn’t look like that will happen, any time soon anyway. The youngest still has 6 more years of school to finish before we even think about taking off somewhere, but believe me we are planning on doing just that, but are still tossing around some locations and haven’t agreed on any particular spot, as of yet, but  San Diego is on the list.

Had a rough time trying to fall asleep last night, was tossing and turning the whole night through, I thought the wife was going to clobber me for keeping her from getting any sleep either. I got something to eat and drink, smoked a few smokes and even went and got on-line for a few hours, but nothing worked. An hour and a half before the alarm was set to go off I decided the hell with it and got up and got dressed and headed for the local flea market, probably earlier than some of the vendors.

A good friend of mine, Pauly has been tossing around the idea of opening his own Rug Store a lot as of late, he has the most amazing supply of Asian, Arabic & Oriental rugs that he has been wheeling and dealing in for many a year now. He has grown tired of the hassles involved with traveling around from one Flea Market and Antique show to another, he wants to “put down some roots” as they say.

Now Pauly is definitely from the “old school” and is for the most part computer illiterate, so I offered to come to his aid and spend the day looking around with him on the Internet for some of the things that he is in need of. We both agree that finding a company that offers Small Business Loans should be the first order of business.

After searching for only a short time we came across a web-site www.ezunsecured.com that seemed to fit the bill for what he is looking for. Their unsecured business loans are right now being offered at a 6% APR, which we both agree is acceptable. Pauly is in need of a company with excellent customer service, and one that makes the process as easy as possible and can provide the funds in a timely fashion, Pauly truly is not known for his patience.

I have a dear friend that I have been going to flea markets with for the past few years that is interested in opening his own store for all his Native American Collectibles he has accumulated over his lifetime. He asked me for a few ideas to help him make his store appealing to the eyes of his new coming customers. I had told him that I knew of a great website on the Internet that he can go to and find displays for his merchandise at www.godfreygroup.com. Their main products consist of trade show displays and other items that are useful to use at Trade Shows, but they also have Poster Frames and Floor Stands which he is most likely going to use the most, for his Native American art work. He is so very excited and anxious to check out the website tomorrow when he comes over, and is ready to make purchases as soon as possible.

On the week-ends I enjoy taking the wife and kid(s) to the local Flea Market that has been growing bigger and better every year.  It is a great way to spend time with the family, we get to be outside in the fresh air and we always get plenty of exercise walking from booth to booth in our search for items to add to their own individual collections that we have got going.

Today was a good day, the weather was perfect, not to hot and not to cold, with not a drop of rain, which always makes people run for cover and really puts a damper on the vendors sales. Each member of the family was lucky today and each was able to find something to purchase to bring home.
