It has been 24 hours now since I closed the store.
In all my months there I did get but only one walk in
customer.
Towards the end I went all but crazy. Maybe I did go crazy.
This failure I take very personally,
All though there were stores closing all around me…..
Florida is in a desperate state for sure.
The design industry is all but shot.
Except for a few that
are holding hands with the most successful
real estate brokers selling 3 million {and upwards} dollar
condos.
That’s how it goes here.
-Tons of money or none.
And NO,
I couldn’t get anyone to hold my hand that was selling
anything,
Much less something worth spending money on with a designer
to put window treatments in to,
Or anything else that was pricy or fabulous.
What’s the deal…..do my armpits smell????
I tried to keep a stiff upper lip, but the facts are the
facts.
I just had to get out.
I am pretty devastated by this and may not be posting for a
while.
Maybe I will finally be able to visit your blogs ,
If I can get my chin off the ground and stop this shitty
piss poor feeling inside.
I will get through this.
I know…
I always f---ing do.
And yes, I am angry at myself, the economy, and life in
general.
I am mostly angry because I am so overwhelmed and sad.
When I get off my pity pot and figure things out…
I will be back.
To those of you that I love…
I send you more of it.
