Launching a business! Announcing Grey Wolf Pet Gear!


Dog leash
Grey Wolf Pet Gear

Yes, friends and family, this is what has been keeping me busy these past few months.  As you may or may not know, I have now been on a sabbatical from my other work life for coming up on 2 years. As we have been exploring options, G and I have been toying around with the idea of starting something, like a business.

It has been quite the experience learning about how to sell a product, but I am very excited to announce that we now have our first item for sale on Amazon! Here is the link to it:  Grey Wolf Dog Leash


And why are we starting with a dog leash? G has been volunteering at Austin Pet's Alive! for some time now, getting his dog fix in since big L is allergic. Let's say that the quality of the leashes that everyone there has to use day in day out, left something to be desired,  so that's where we started.

This is what it looks like up close:

I am hoping that we can grow this, I quite fancy myself as a bit of a mogul (if you can be just a bit of a mogul), but one step at a time. (Does this count as #22 on my list of 50?  If this goes well, we will certainly consider expanding. We will be donating a percentage of our profits to no-kill shelters because they do tremendous work to save at risk animals.

So if you are in the market for a dog leash, buy Grey Wolf Dog Leash.

If you would like to send us comments (including encouragement) or ask questions you may leave them here on my blog or email GreyWolfPetGear@gmail.com.

Off on another adventure!

Best Groom's Response Ever!

20 Years ago "On behalf of my most beautiful wife, Sally and myself, I'd like to thank you all for being here today. Special thanks go to all those of you who have worked very hard to make and arrange this event and to those of you who have traveled very long and very far to be here today. You may have noticed, on the outside, Sally and I are very different and have different backgrounds; but on the inside, Sally and I are very alike. We can relate to how each other thinks and feels - which is why we are here today. So, on behalf of my wife Sally and myself, I would like to thank Allah for bringing two like souls together despite the outer appearances, and I would also like to thank both our families for accepting the new family member so kindly despite the outer differences." True then as it is now. The paper he is holding? My hubby's hand-written notes from 20 years ago: But you want wedding pictures right?  Outside the mosque, be...

Job Search2: Networking etiquette..

On which I have a few ideas.  As my husband keeps telling me, I won't get a job by spending hours in front of the computer submitting applications to online job postings.  The best use of any job-seeker's time is spent talking to friends and acquaintances and letting them know that you are looking for a job and what your skills and interests are. So here is what I found tricky about networking: How hard to push?  Working parents are busy, so if I asked a friend, who is a working parent, about a position I had seen at their company, do I ask a second time? How soon after? And what if there is another position - do I talk about that too?  If that friend is very enthusiastic about getting more information for me on a post then I hear nothing, what then?  Is it realistic to think they'll get back to me?  I find it difficult to broach the topic again.  I might ask a second time but for me there is no third time. What do I trade in return? In the net...

About those peeps

I've previously blogged about my state trying to find a group of girlfriends here in Austin , so I thought I'd provide an update on my quest to surround myself with peeps who are actually available to go to the neighbourhood coffee shop and sit down and chat.  Well, I had made friends with another mom whose son had just started at Lucas' new school.  We would try to have a chat, without children, once a week. Well, they decided to move to Utah after the first term.  Another mom I met through my mom's group who I would meet up separately with and actually have a conversation about what is going on in life, moved too. Not out of state, but far enough where I can't meet her for coffee either.  Hmmmmm. So, my plan has been to crash other peoples' socials.  I went to a playgroup I didn't belong to but was being hosted by a neighbour, that worked out just great!  A little social time, play time for Liam.  I invited another neighbour out to see a movie...on...
