how is '07 looking for you?

With the warm weather in full swing, I curious to know how everyone's year is shaping up.

We begin our full maintenance routes next week, almost 2 weeks ahead of schedule. However, I have this nagging suspicion in the front of my mind that this year is going to be flat. Year to date, sales are stagnant. We have retained almost 95% of our clients/rev and have sold approximately 10% beyond that, all from current client enhancements. The phone isnt ringing like it was last spring and the proposals I have submitted are not being accepted or being postponed for later consideration. I have to wonder if there is something amiss in the current economic situation as I can not remember a time where I have seen so many homes on the market. Is anyone else experiencing the same situation or am I alone in my thoughts.
