I am so excited about this, I can barely sleep.
I have ideas about the logo, the color choices are something that worry me. Apparently there are 200 shades of blue.
Apparently cotton has many varieties, the cost will definitely dictate what I can and will offer.
So, taking the permutations between colors, sizes, cotton material and designs, I am going to have a lot to think about. Well, this is going to be interesting.
Ok! More to follow.

Psoriasis: How it has made me who I am.
The year was 1991, I was a junior in college. One evening, I woke up after what I thought was a nightmare. I had scratched myself to what I thought was close to death.
I immediately jumped into the shower to cool myself as I was burning from the inside, I think that was the worse thing I could have done. The soap interacting with my skin and open wounds made it worse. I simply did not know what to do.
I somehow made it to daylight and went to Mercy Hospital which was within walking distance. I learned within a few hours that I might have Psoriasis. What the hell was Psoriasis? I did not know how I got it. I did get a chance to see a dermatologist and learned more about this disorder/ailment/disease.
Well, I soon learned that I am stuck with this gift (yes, I call it a gift, sometimes it is an unwelcome gift). I had no choice but to change the way I think about things. One good thing that came out of this is that I am can relate to people who are not well or have a family member who is not well.
Everything in life was impacted, my relationships, my activities (sports), my eating habits and personal attention (hygiene). I learned what to do and not to do in every situation and it has been quite a journey.
