@scott1482 No worries, the weather has been terrible lately. It sounds like we enjoy the same reading material. lol

@godswillservices What gets me is seeing the multiple missed calls on Christmas frickin' day. Y'all though we were here on actual Christmas? Or the people who call at exactly the time we open. We are definitely busy checking in the first round of clients and are not answering that phone...
