Uh...Comcast????

So, it is thursday, the 24th...I have been without internet service from last thursday until yesterday, and even then, it was up, down, up, down...Comcast comes out, and of course, 5 minutes before the serviceman arrives..it goes back up...he leaves...its down again...I have had 3 service calls here, but soon after they leave, it goes down again....It has to be due to the cold weather, since I saw the ATT truck playing around with all the phone and cable lines outside, too. Scary, its supposed to get very cold again this weekend....

But to move on, the winners of the auctions for the web design were Jill and Missy, and we are in the initial design phases....well, we were until I couldn't communicate with them anymore...but keep your eyes open, if I have service for a few days constant, hope to have them up and running by next week.....if you don't hear from me....well, I'll give you one guess why! (Comcast)

Web Design Auction for Mary Isabella's Closet

Hi all, I have not been on for quite some time, but an emergency came up, and now is the time. If you haven't heard, Mary from Isabellascloset is ill and in need of our help. You can read about it http://www.isabellascloset.blogspot.com/. Now, if you don't know Mary, you should, as she is probably the kindest woman I have met on the internet, she is the most unselfish, giving person!

Since I had a bad year myself, and will probably close my other business, the LilCottageShoppe, I have no funds to contribute, but what I do have is a new business, my web design business.

So, through my blog, I will be auctioning off a web design. The bids will start at 100.00. All proceeds will be paid directly to Mary's paypal account to help her pay for meds. Take a look at my portfolio, although it is still small, rest assured, I am not happy till you are. You tell me your vision of your website and we will get it done!
So, come on....start bidding now.....send all bids to this link please....
http://retroboutiques.com/contact.php and make sure to put in the subject line, Bids for Mary!

Lets give back to the woman who has given so much to us for so long, its her turn!

I will announce when I receive the first bid, and the bidding will then close 48 hours from then!

Hugs,
Arlene
