I'VE BEEN TIRED SICK... :(

Hey everyone. I"m still sick! Can you believe it? I really wouldn't call it me being sick, but I have that cough that I can't shake. I headed to the doctor and they told me same-same. I probably have post-nasal drip, along with allergies, and asthma. But this time around, they gave me an asthma spray, which actually really helped cut my coughing down by half.

What I think happened is that I got an allergy attack cleaning up my house, then that lead to the post-nasal drip stuff, which led to the asthma stuff. The result, me being sick for about a month and a half. I do think, this asthma spray will do the trick, along with calaritin-D, and the flonase spray. We'll see.

On the other news. I got my 1-800-number up and running again. I have a lease on the number for another 5 years, so I just have to make sure I renew it again. The 800 number is actually a forwarding number to my business line. I actually think I may want to forward it directly to my cell, if I can actually do that. Then I can get rid of one line and cut down on my bills. I forward my business line to my 99% of the time anyway......

Lastly, I'm going to be adding a huge article section to my website, and will make the front page look more like a news site, with my latest articles and blogs on there. I need to do this so I can up my rankings in google.

As far for everything with the DLNR. I DO PLAN ON GOING FORWARD with prosecuting the State. I just can't do it alone. I need to get a bunch of my wedding companies, if not all, to band together on this topic. It doesn't make any sense.... It takes about 1 week to get an approval for a permit, and for the majority of eloping weddings, which are last minute..... Well, by the time we get the permit for the couple, the couple has left hawaii already.... That's not right.

To be honest, I truly am not sure if the wedding industry is getting hit hard from DLNR's permit process or not. I do know that many wedding inquries (for all companies) have siezed all together since the permit law has come into affect. But it could be the slower economy, the cut in flights to Hawaii, the higher oil prices, it could be everything combined. I do know that the DLNR permit law (although illegal) is not helping the enviroment, nor is it helping the wedding industry. It's just a tax.....

Unfortuantely, I have heard from four of my friends who own wedding businesses, that they actually may be closing down in the next few months as their wedding inquiries and wedding bookings have come to a complete halt. Granted, my wedding inquiries have slowed to zero in the last two weeks...they have slowed to zero in the last two months. And these are BIG companies people. Amazing. Just amazing people. The wedding industry has been exteremly slow.....the cause...I really don't know.

You don't have to worry about me shutting my doors though. I'm going to be going strong as usual. And I hope, with my higher google ranking, my business should return to 2005 levels....where I can help out more couples.

Anyway, I better go to bed. I have a wedding tomorrow at sunest...need to rest this sick body to be able to function tomorrow.
