Diane,

Don't forget to cut a little time out for you!!! It's good to hear that you were given the chance to gain experience with repairing horse blankets. It sounds like it may open doors for you in the future for a prosperous business.

Hope the 'neighbor thing' smooths out and this fella will be more reasonable. That has to be terribly stressful for you.

Stay in touch when you have the chance. We miss you. TJ

Why limit yourself to horse blankets. Wash comforts or any large items. You may be able to get a commercial washer used so it's not so expensive. If the business is good you might consider a new one.

There's definitely a need for a horse blanket washing and repair service--laundromats frown on people who bring hairy, muddy, torn, smelly blankets into their establishments...good luck! (I'm not saying that I ever did that...)
