It's Monday morning, and since last week was a holiday, I sent out a notice that I'd need payment today - and ALL of my families paid already!!! This is an unprecedented event, and cause for much celebration!
Edited to add, several hours later....
My drop in family over paid me by ten bucks today, and when I pointed it out, they said "it's ok, you keep it". I'm seriously doing the happy dance today!!!!!!!
