It's Winter Again; No Wait, It's Summer!

Saturday afternoon and early evening, the skies opened up and spit hail the size of marbles. Chaz reported one at his house as big as a tangerine, and there were reports in town of broken skylights and cracked windshields. It was a doozy of a storm, with plenty of gale-force winds to blow the patio furniture over. Yesterday, it was in the high 80s--sultry, humid and hot. I had to break down and turn on the A/C to cool the house down at midnight so I could get some sleep. It was 82 in the house, and with my hot flashes, that was unacceptable. Harry showed up at eleven, looking dog-tired. He could barely put one big fat foot in front of the other, and he slogged in, curled up on the couch, and went right to sleep. He spent the night with us, and was gone, presumably back to his "other" house, before breakfast. What a funny little bassett-beagle! I am spending most of my time at the shop. Why did I think that things would get calmer, once the shop opened? It seems like there is more work to do now than can fit in a day! Today I have classes to teach, and I want to get started on setting up online sales this week. We have promos to plan and ideas to bring to fruition. So we're busier than ever.

We're Famous!

Here are the Sunny Side Girls in all our glory on Opening Day, April 1, 2011...

And here's the text of the article...

What fun we are having! Everyone says the shop looks and feels GREAT! All that painting and decorating paid off! When I go to work, it's almost as good as staying home!
