a mixed day...

..... i think some folks come to the store when they really need a Little time for themselves, a retreat kind of...a recess..from all the awful problems .....i hope we are a little break ..maybe a little trip into la la land......even if just for a little sliver of time...

THIS WEEK there were some visits from the bright side too...

***a 20 yr customer promising to keep us on his route..

****another 20 yr contact bringing me a present because he wanted me happy...

****a seller sending me in a beautiful rock....

**lots of laughing women in the naughty magnet department....

**and as always our great crew who keep going and going and going....thru all the work...so many good laughs thanks to usually wade or lisa....they really lighten us all up ...with sometimes totally dorky jokes...they are on my bright side for sure......
