First of all, thank you.

That's very sweet.

Well, I mostly learned all of that accounting for our... It was Ross's in my first store.

And it was just right down the street from our house.

We sometimes would drive the four-wheeler, but it wasn't built out back then.

But I had to learn because the way that we were put into this business, I wouldn't have done it exactly like it was done.

But...

I had to count every single penny.

So I had to learn accounting to the T and make sure all the sales receipts, you know, reflected the gross and that kind of thing.

And so I guess I started out with, I don't know, Kaleidoscope.

Maybe I can, you know, catch on to many things.

Sure.

The program took me a while.

It's the coolest class.

It's like once you start getting into where they just are going to put you in honors courses.

Yeah.

You know, they they took away the creativity and they had us doing all kinds of things and learning all kinds of things that you wouldn't learn.

And I remember several times I didn't take a geography class because they they did the kaleidoscope class instead.

But yeah.

these quizzes where you couldn't possibly figure out the answer unless you you like marked everything off the list and um i can't even tell you they there was so much that they did to for our creative brains even just brainstorming she wouldn't let us just be like um like we had to have 20 pages of brainstorming i brainstorm about everything now um
