I just paid off my note to the bank 6 months early!

[Padraig18]

I took out a loan to buy my business, and Tony and I have both worked like dogs to pay it off, and today we did--- 6 months early! As of 10:07 a.m., CST, I am no longer in debt!

A round for the house, barkeep!

Perhaps a good time to start decorating the office with artwork and/or begin your corporate art collection?

It is exciting indeed to be debt free - good for you!

8. Floor-to-ceiling racks and shelves.

I've a bit of wall space behind the counter, but not a lot. What would you suggest? :)

[Rabrrrrrr]

11. How big of a wall space?

I'm sure I have something that would not only fit, but enhance the space and offer you something to reduce stress and anxiety.

12. 4' tall, 10' wide, approximately.

19. Oh, hell, plenty of room!

One of the 30"40" paintings would work, though with frame it doesn't leave much clearance vertically (figure 3' x 4' with frame).

Something restful, like this one:

Or one or two 20"x30" ones, like these:
