Hey Blog! Long time no see.
I can’t believe how the months have passed?? The last time I
visited my blog was March of this year, now the months have flown by without
notice.
The opening of my little boutique seems to have kept me very
busy. Cherry Pick Boutique has been my lifelong dream and it now has been born
and is off and running. My grand opening was April 21st 2012 and
what a perfect day it was. Old and new friends, family and more came out to
support my little business adventure.
By the end of May my little 400 square foot spot seemed too
small and I took a leap of faith and moved across the hall to double the space.
I’m now into my fifth month and have learned so much with
much more to learn I’m sure. Some months have been good and others not so much.
I’ve come to learn that this is retail and things will be up and down.
The Freight House Square is an old freight house that was
built over 100 years ago. Now the Sounder pulls up out back to delivers its
daily commuters and picks up some to be delivered to the rest of the stops
along the way.
Inside the doors of the freight house are all types of shops
and an international food court that is indescribable.
In the mean time I have just had my two year anniversary
from the day I found the lump in my breast.
If you’re wondering about that well, I’m good so far and am believing
that it will stay that way. I still see all the special doctors and have to
have mammograms every six months. I’ve been told that after five years they
stop watching so closely. I’m still struggling with the steroid weight but that
will take some time too.
So I have decided to take my blog in a new direction and
start writing about the people and places at the Freight House Square. I have
met some of the best people in my life at the freight house; I call this my
freight house family and you will soon understand why.
