    1. It's been over a couple of months and mostly us...We s=old out a LOT of the merchandise so it didn't have to be moved as the other store is well stocked already. We were SOOOO busy with customers because of the sales and although we are on the same server as the other store it ran waaaay too slowly so we put everyting in at THIS store and then Mike had to take it to the other store and reneter so so so many transactions. He finally got caught up but now I've been inventorying...my hands are SO sore from handling merchandise and I've gone through (plural) pens and notebooks whew...

  2. Is the new store located in your town still, Mare? It sounds like the business is expanding, and that's exciting! Change is good!

    1. Luv, the store is in a town about 22 miles away. I know in a city that might not be a lot, but out here it can a looooong way considering we won't be able to get across the back roads as they become blocked and the highway that takes us there also becomes closed...hmmmm, not sure how this is going to go!!! Guess time will tell!!! We've talked about moving and we've also talked about (semi) retiring...so many decisions...does anyone have any sage words of advice?

  3. Wow! It's really happening! Is the photo of the old store or the new store? Are you and Mike supposed to run BOTH new stores?? Yikes, if so! Is Moe still there to help? How's our favorite dad, Dale?
    The contractors tell us our house will probably be finished in a month. It immediately goes on the market. Then all Hell breaks loose here. LOL We'll be supporting both houses financially, among other things. But our health is pretty good and our spirits are pretty good so we have the tools and strength to get through this next phase.
    oxoxoxoxox to you all!

    1. WELL! If that doesn't sound a bit nerve wracking!!! TWO houses! yikers....hoping your beautiful new home sells quickly.and that you can come to an agreement on where you'd like to move....we can't decide!
      Mike is managing the new that is a business just like the one we are closing...that takes him down to ONE...the other business is an embroidery business so while Mike may have to keep an eye out in that direction he won't have to be on top of it...
      Be sure to let us know when the house is done! do we get a "tour"???

  4. I will help! It is always more fun to help someone else clean something rather then clean your own house. Good luck!
