Running Four Businesses In One Keeps Me On My Toes

~ burnsmp ~ Leave a comment

Today, I got an email from my health provider which is geared to my age group (nope I am not saying how old) and it said that playing games is good for the brain. Thank you I have enough activity to keep my brain working for a long time. I am blessed to have a great business because not only do we offer one service or business, but we offer four…printing, graphic design, direct mail and now promotional products. To say the least, it keeps us all on our toes.

visit our website http://www.burnsmp.com to browse 800,000 promotional products.

Each jobs goes through our shop by a job ticket number. It moves smoothly from graphic design, to print production, into our finishing bindery an then on to the mailing department and finally to the U.S. Postal Service. If it is a promotional product it starts the same way, then into the design department and on to the ad specialty vendor for production and finally to the customer. Attention to detail is essential.

Love all of this brain activity, it keeps me young.

Determined Kitty

Sweet little kitty to start my Friday morning

As usual, I am rushing out the door to get to the post office and then to work. I opened the garage door and turned around and this cat was in my garage. I said “now where did you come from?”. I tried to shoo it out but it was having none of that. I petted it and then picked it up and set it outside the garage. As soon as I put it down it ran back into the garage. I picked it up again and took it out into the yard. I backed the car up watching my rear view camera so that I did not run over it. I closed the door and then saw my neighbor in the yard. I got out of the car and asked if he had a cat. He answered, “no but I just saw one run back in your garage.” That sneaky little kitty had run back in the garage while I was watching the rear camera. I opened the garage door again and sure enough out comes the cat. I petted it again and picked it up once more and finally got the garage door closed before it could run back in again. When I was pulling out of my driveway, it was visiting the neighbor next door. I love cats, just not in my garage when I am in a rush.

Grand Puppy is Coming This Weekend

Lincoln, my grand puppy

Lincoln is coming this weekend for Grammy camp. I keep him every summer for a couple of weeks so that his family can go on do some fun things. He is a Caviler King Charles Spaniel. He is the most laid back dog I have ever seen. He hardly ever barks and is content to sleep and be petted.

I bring him to work with me when he is at Grammy camp and he comes in and greets everyone, gets petted and then he gets under my desk and sleeps until it is time for a walk outside.

Stop by and see Lincoln, if you are a dog lover. I will wake him up to greet you.

Free Fishing Day This Saturday!
The 2019 Free Fishing Day is this Saturday, June 8. Anyone may fish free without a license in Tennessee’s public waters. The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency provides the annual free day in hopes of increasing interest in fishing. The day allows anyone the opportunity to try this great outdoor sport, especially children to celebrate fishing as a wholesome and healthy recreational option. In addition, children ages 15 and younger may fish without a license beginning on Free Fishing Day through the following Friday (June 14). The day and week are annual events in Tennessee and are great opportunities to introduce children to the enjoyment and excitement of a day on the water catching fish. The TWRA is among several organizations planning special fishing events, primarily for youngsters. The TWRA annually stocks several thousand pounds of fish for various events. For a list of the events, visit the TWRA website at www.tnwildlife.org and click the Fishing tab. Anglers and potential anglers should check the events list often since special events are frequently added. Free Fishing Day and Week apply to Tennessee’s public waters, TWRA owned and operated lakes, and state park facilities. Some privately owned pay lakes and ponds continue to charge during this special day and week. Anglers will need to consult with those operators if there are any questions about a particular facility.
