He is "ok". Just wanted to let anyone who may be concerned know that :)

Oh, and he did end up taking the doggie with him :)

1. So

if I may..

He opened the store, and left it a week later for an undetermined amount of time? I saw that he paid the rent, but while it's not my place to judge his personal decisions - isn't shutting a store during its first few months business suicide?

3. I think he'll be home sooner rather than later...
Personal situation has apparently outweighed business considerations for the moment. :shrug:

15. That's true but now he isn't there to mail out online purchases
I hate to think of him losing out on $$
but I understand totally why he had to take off.

14. I guess he decided that business suicide wasn't as important
as emotional health.
It was probably a very big decision for him.
I hope he comes back soon, feeling better.
I am sure it wont be too long- he has children
and it wouldn't be right to just leave them for
a long stretch of time.
Retro is a good guy- I think he will rebound.
