The more they so NO, the more I keep on movin'...

The past 24 hours have been a bit tumultuous. The broker who is located in Harmony Cupcake's official spot called to say that he needs a definite yeh or ney by the end of next week. He assured us that it would be to his benefit to make it work out for Harmony b/c the other folks interested want to buy his business and move it across town. Then I received a rejection letter from one of the banks that was dated the same day that I applied for the loan 2 weeks ago. Saying that I was frustrated is an understatement, here is why:

1. The loan officer did not have the decency to even call me to tell me the news like he said he would
2. The bank made the decision the same day that I applied for the loan on 9/24 (this is the date that the letter had on it) but I did not receive the letter in the mail until yesterday (10/4) after I had made several follow up calls.
3. This is just a another example of the lack of integrity that exists in corporate America

So after a slight melt down last night, I am still plowing forward. I may have secured another investor that will enable Harmony Cupcake's to give our broker a yeh and take procession of our location no later than December 1st. So, to all of my cheerleaders, I still may be open for the holiday season, in time for you to experience my sweet potato cheesecake.

On a side note, I must say thank you to my sista Sherrita. She truly lifted my spirits today by talking to me more than 4 times. She also shared with me that her family is really cheering for me and her dad actually gave her a cupcake maker that he bought in the 70's to give to me. I can't wait to see if. We have decided to set up a work out routine together to get this baby weight off. By this time next year we both will be mistaken as the nanny........

I am turning in for now. Peace and Good night.
