Please publish

I have put the last 4 or 5 posts on the family blog.  I will have to ask Amy to help me move them over.  In the meantime I am pleased that I have been able to get to the point where I could put this post on Oldies but goodies.  Not that I have a lot to say but I just kept wondering where my last posts have gone.

I am about ready to fall asleep here - it is my nap time but actually more time has past than I thought and I just have another 1 hour and a quarter to work here at the shop.  Hoping that we get a few people in these next few minutes.  We are going to close the store on Mondays and Tuesdays now for the rest of winter.  I hope that lets up a little bit on expenses.  I also have to pay for the consignors tomorrow so I hope there is enough money in the til to pay for them.

Made some creative windows this morning and hope to make a couple of wreaths tomorrow.  Now if someone would come in and see them!  Sold one of my favorite pieces this morning to Connie Burrows.  Interestingly she loves brass and she bought a brass bell that I thought was so charming.  Good for you Connie.  Perhaps she'll come in again.

Had a meeting today about the shop and getting it moving.  I am hoping to focus on the new larger shop but keep this running at the same time.  I think we could sell things better if they could be better displayed.  Susan and Richard's things etc.  I need to work on our write-ups about them for the on-line store.  I was hard on Jim about the on-line stuff but it seems like for years we have been working on this stuff and nothing comes to fruition and yet it has cost a lot of money and time.  If everyone else makes it at these things why not us?

three things:
1.  I am good no matter where I serve as long as I am serving well.
2.  I am grateful that I am feeling better - I was really dragging for a few weeks and so darn emotional, but things seem to be getting better.
3.  I plan to get on top of things now that I am feeling better.  Coming along on Laura's book and hope to see it finished by Monday at the latest.  It is so fun to do these books and recall great memories.

  1. i've noticed you getting better ma. although i have been sick.. so maybe its just cause i only see you at night for a few minutes and you feel bad that i've been miserable? no, i've noticed. its good that you have noticed too. it helps when i notice i've been acting certain ways.. makes me want to actually put a change on my attitude and make we want to do better when i can admit it to myself.. and not have other people tell me. anyways, thanks for all you do for me. i appreciate it, even when i dont express my appreciation. i really do appreciate. love you kitten breath.
