Bertha Saved Me!

Bertha told Amy I am to continue living....and Amy agreed because she needed my advice on a blend for a new product. Remember the "ant killer" she made last week? Well, as I surmised, she has already started the process to put it on the market and made me go to Home Depot to check out the competition. Guess I'm gonna need another miniskirt ....maybe I can find an orange one!

So Modern Mermaids starts another week of business and we are roaring along with an order and a half? but had some great news that will help bring our "stuff" to market. And I didn't have to do a thing. I don't often write about what we do but Amy and I have teamed up with an amazing lady who has created the safest soap formula possible (edible, drinkable, basically orifice safe) and we use it in Modern Mermaids products, Knotty Yachties (our soon to be marine line), Silly Saylor Shampoo and Spray Away for Pets and Daisy Vicious Soap Line. Whew! Told ya we make a lot of stuff! Make it and love it! As do our families and friends....who I thank by the way if you're reading this.

Not making too much fun today as yesterday during a heated debate with my neighbors over the evils of bleach, we were suddenly aground aboard a beautiful 42 foot sailboat. Wound up home at 3 am and Bertha's mad. She and the alligator wannabe lizards are the only ones who saw me come home at that time but they figured I was out doing things I shouldn't be doing. After all "nothing good comes from being out past midnight".....oh, if they only knew just how much fun there is to be had after 12! There's a moon to stare at, stars to count, the turtles are dragging themselves out of the ocean to lay eggs on the beach a block away and if you're lucky you may just see Bertha come alive. She certainly does for us two chicks who created her and as Amy's home trying to blend ant "stuff" and I pretend to work but stare out the window at the pool below and see my neighbors having fun, Bertha gives us a thumbs up as another day goes by and we're still in business.....

Hi Audra! So you're sitting around flirting with men online instead of making more of your GREAT Modern Mermaids product?!
