HEY,
I'M BACK AGAIN, AND NO I HAVEN'T BEEN ON A MUCH DESERVED VACATION. IF YOU HAVE READ MY BLOG LATELY THEN YOU KNOW I HAVE BEEN CONCERNED ABOUT MY GIFT SHOP AND THE LACK OF SALES THIS SUMMER. TIMES HAVE CERTAINLY BEEN TOUGH AND THE PROVERBIAL HOLE WE'RE IN JUST KEEPS GETTING DEEPER. SO I'VE BEEN RACKING MY BRAIN (WHATS LEFT OF IT) TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO SURVIVE THIS DOWNWARD TREND IN THE ECONOMY. SO AFTER MUCH CONSIDERATION I DECIDED TO GRAB ANOTHER SHOVEL AND JUST DIG WITH BOTH HANDS! THAT'S RIGHT I BOUGHT THE SUB SHOP NEXT DOOR TO MY GIFT SHOP! I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING, THAT GIRL HAS FALLEN OFF THE DEEP END, AND YOU'RE RIGHT. CALL ME CRAZY BUT I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE A BUSINESS THAT IS ESTABLISHED AND HAS BEEN PROFITABLE FOR TEN YEARS SO I DECIDED TO GO FOR IT. YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE RIGHT?
SO NOW I HAVE TWO BUSINESSES RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER. NOT ONLY THAT BUT THE BABY STILL COMES TO WORK EVERY DAY AND MY 20 YEAR OLD SON (A BIGGER BABY) WORKS IN THE RESTAURANT WHILE MY 17 YEAR OLD WATCHES THE GIFT SHOP. I BACK UP MY SON COOKING WHEN ITS BUSY AND MY 17 YEAR OLD WATCHES THE BABY IN THE GIFT SHOP WHEN THE SUB SHOP GETS TOO HECTIC. WHAT HAPPENS IS WHAT I CALL BARELY CONTROLLED CHAOS (AND I DO MEAN BARELY!) BUT ACTUALLY OTHER THAN BEING PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY EXHAUSTED EVERYTHING IS GOING WELL. IF I CAN MANAGE TO WORK WITH MY CHILDREN WITHOUT LOOSING MY GRIP ON REALITY I THINK MY HOLE MIGHT START TO FILL IN A LITTLE IN JUST A FEW MORE MONTHS. SO I GUESS MY SANITY IS A FAIR TRADE TO GET FINANCIALLY STABLE AGAIN RIGHT? RIGHT? RIGHT? WHATEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JUST CALL ME CRAZY
Y'ALL HANG IN THERE!
