It is still hot, hot, hot, hot, hot here in Central Texas. School is back in session and the summer crowds are gone. Rather than freaking out about slower sales, we are using this opportunity to take a little down time and recharge our batteries. Don has been vacationing for a few days in California and now John is headed there for a little R&R. I bet I get a few days off next!
In the meantime merchandise continues to flow into the warehouse and we keep on keepin' on. Linda is busy pricing, Tamara is busy doing techie stuff and the girls behind the registers have located their dust rags and are chasing dust bunnies down for extinction.
It is sometimes hard to stay positive and upbeat when things are slow but fortunately we are surrounded by so many friends in the industry and great customers that we see the silver lining on the edge of this cloud. Traffic will pick up soon enough but in the meantime we will continue to breathe in and breathe out and be grateful for our blessings.
By the way, did you know there are 121 shopping days left until Christmas....I'm just saying!
