Almost 5 years ago to this day, I became part of something wonderful. I took on a space at Junction 71! I gave everything I possibly could to the shop, and I would like to think the shop in turn gave me so much as well.
However, as some of you know, my family has gone thru MANY changes over the last year or so. I am a grandmother now, and my daughter and her baby are back at home. My husband took a new job with many more responsibilities and a vigorous travel schedule, leaving me to pull double, and sometimes triple duty! I am continuing to homeschool my girls, and we will be tackling Driver's Ed soon as well (NO! I am NOT the Driver's Ed. teacher! 🤣) And, quite frankly, just being a regular old mom to 5 daughters is A LOT! Not to mention, I try to be a pretty awesome wife....Hahahahaha!
At this point, my priorities need to shift and I need to focus more on my family.
I have made the very difficult decision to withdraw from the shop. My move out date will be June 30th.
Unfortunately, the downside to being a perfectionist is that you either give "it" 100% or, you get behind and avoid "it" as much as possible. If you have seen my space lately, you know where I'm at. 😳
I will be carrying out my original Summer plans to redo my space. I will be adding ALL NEW inventory Monday and Tuesday! I won't be having any blow out sales, but I might do "something" the last weekend that I am there.
My plans are to take July, August, and September to realign my priorities with my goals. After that, I might do an online pop-up or some seasonal things. Or, I might just donate ALL of my current inventory to a Pregnancy Crisis Center. (WHO KNOWS?!?!?!)
I will still be available for custom gift making, shirt orders, and things of that nature. :) I might even host a ladies night again soon!
I am so extremely thankful for the opportunities and experiences being part of Junction 71 allowed me.
