It was nice to hear the press run.

We finally printed a 3 orders of shirts this morning.  Not huge runs but the 1st in a month.  It's amazing what you miss.
It's not a job if you love doing it.

And its super hard to get back into production mode, I can't bring employees back yet so only family help right now . I'm going to be swamped for the next week and a half, hopefully were turning a corner.

I agree, it will be hard to work full days again but I'd rather be doing this than honey doos.  One thing this whole thing has taught me is that while we have to make a living, we don't have to make as much as I thought we did.  Me and my wife just had the discussion that I don't want to go back to being as busy as we were just being a mom and pop but sure don't want to be as slow as we have been this last 6 wks.
