October Musings


Fall is a favorite time of year for many mid-westerners. The hot summer is behind us and thoughts of snow and ice a distant thought. Just beautiful weather and still enough light in the evening to keep us energized. Once the cold and darkness sets in, my body clock re-regulates to bear-like behavior. In the evening I just want to hibernate under a warm quilt with a good book.

We've been busy at Graphic - the usual fall rush with students and instructors ordering materials to have in time for classes. It's always a dance of some sort - better when it's a waltz and everything flows smoothly, but occasionally it becomes a tango. Our customers have been great - Most realize we aren't Amazon. We are working hard at reducing order wait time, backorders, and communication among other things, but we are a small company with real-time employees. Whenever you do have a problem, let us know. Especially when done in a positive, pleasant way, it gets our attention.
