Time...

Why does time move so slow in January? I so wish I could savor it and appreciate those precious hours that I so often crave in the middle of summer. But as I prepare to go to the Chicago Market for our biannual shopping trip of new merchandise my mind is racing to plan for our spring displays and of course our Fall and Christmas displays. I am hoping to be inspired and find those items that speak to me and hopefully my customers. We try to be unique and different from the rest of the shops in town and I always feel this self-induced pressure to make my shoppe the best I know how. So, I need to just relax a little, enjoy this time of respite and dream about spring!!!
