I haven't heard from the client on the next assignment, but with it being Easter weekend, I'm not too worried. Thanks for stopping by. :) @ deanna–Exactly, no matter how much you know about the business, if you have a reputation of no being reliable, you might as well give up.

Skill is important, but so is reliability. Great advice, especially if you are trying to build a working reputation. Skill is important, but so is reliability.

The main thing is confessing your mistake and making it right. I try to incorporate that to my kids too. Sounds to me like that client will come back to you again. People appreicate honesty in any business.

Not every place experiences the same weather patterns. Around here, we've been in the middle of a serious drought, so when you're sick of the rain, send it our way.

I can't help thinking of Forks, WA, just a few hours from where I live. Of course, where I live it is mostly overcast, too... rain and clouds for about 10 months of the year.

It's a disease. LOL @aw---Mine is Roget's Super Thesaurus 2nd Edition. Poor thing has seen better days, but it's still holding together. I write mostly non-fic and use it a lot these days as dictionary/simile (in fact had to use it for that word) finder. It has a huge coffee stain on the bottom, the binding is torn, and there are hundreds of highlighted words throughout the whole thing. I'd be lost without it. @ dpsmusings—I love words, I love to find new words, I love to hear new words, I love rhyming words, I just love words. It’s a disease. LOL
