Ok, so I'm really struggling starting this second entry.. I dont know why, I've been a writer from way back.. Not professionally but I kept an in depth diary from grade 5 till just before Memphis was born 2 years ago. I seem to have lost my knack- or perhaps there's just so much to tell I dont know where to start.
Last week was a Great sales week. The week started off with a huge sale on the monday and just got better from there. People often ask me if the shop is ''busy''. 90% of the time I cant honestly answer yes. My work history has been hospitality and retail- 2 years of that Fast food, and nearly 5 years in Supermarket Management. These were not slow pace jobs. So to go from that to a small run Baby store is a whole different league.Perhaps the better question would be how are sales? but then I may not want to answer that either.
I've always been a person who needs to be kept busy. I am my own worst enemy when I'm left with nothing to do.. I thought this would be impossible with a 2 year old toddler, but we always have our thoughts.So this week I'm trying to brainstorm new low cost idea's for marketing the business.
On another note Memphis goes in for an adenoid operation on Friday. His op has been cancelled twice already so were prepared for it to happen again.. I know this operation will be great but I cant help but feel anxious. The anesthetic itself is dangerous without anything else. Since he was born he has struggled with breathing properly. In fact we never needed a baby monitor as he snored so loud we could hear him from one end of the house to the other.. Another symptom of enlarged adenoids -he always has a snotty nose.This looks horrible for him, & makes me feel like a bad mummy.. Were also hoping the op will help improve his speech.
I dont want to waffle on too much today, I'm not sure how often I will blog yet, so will keep em short for now.
