Womandi, I have to give people who are making full time living here a SUPER HAND. I could not do it!
Sales are down, but for me they are every summer. This week has been ok but nothing to write home about but I have learned to expect very little in summer. It is hard to truck away working at this for such little piddly stuff during summer. (I do find if I have to leave town & do not put the store on vacation all of a sudden I sell to - so usually have to limit time I am gone or close store which I did do several times this summer because of family issues)
I guess you could say I live for the Holidays!
Hopefully things will bounce back in the economy and on the bay!
We all have those crying days for sure!
